Paderborn by the nose!

A short tour of the city from the perspective of a clown to the most beautiful sights.

PfefferMinze Ottilie Tatsächlich is a clown who presents over 50 sights of her home town in the book "Paderborn der Nase nach" (Paderborn by the nose).

With humorous, sometimes thought-provoking but always tongue-in-cheek texts, PfefferMinze introduces interested people to well-known and unknown places in Paderborn. Through the eyes of a clown, the world looks so much more positive.

PfefferMinze Ottilie Tatsächlich's real name is Anne Schwede and this year she was honoured with the City of Paderborn's Culture Noble for her work. She has been involved for many years as a "KlinkClown" in various care facilities and runs the Humorkolleg.

"Hmm, you might be thinking, why is she giving a tour of the city? - I can tell you right away. I've lived here in Paderborn all my life and I love this city, just like my work as a clown. In fact, I'm convinced that many more people should share this great love, both for Paderborn and for clowning.

You'll be surprised what you get to hear and see here. I'll show you totally typical Paderborn places and I'll also take you to places that perhaps no one would see at first glance, I'll give you my insider tips, so to speak.

Well then - let's go! I wish you lots of fun on your journey of discovery, there's even an audio walk to go with it. So you can also hear my voice as I guide you through my home!
