Team Building Event Sika Deutschland GmbH
Ludwigsburg charms with its baroque elegance and modern energy — the perfect setting for a lively team building experience. As a CityHunters team guide, I had the pleasure of leading a large iPad Murder Mystery Tour for 340 employees of Sika Deutschland GmbH on February 20, 2024 at 4:00 PM.
The group gathered at the square in front of the forum in the palace park, where I warmly welcomed everyone and went over the final technical details and the schedule. The participants were divided into 49 teams and handed their iPads, and then the scavenger hunt began. Our route led teams past well-known sights such as the Residenzschloss Ludwigsburg, the Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg and Schloss Favorite, all with the aim of solving tricky puzzles and completing team challenges.
During the tour the teams were on their own, competing in good spirits for the highest score. Points were awarded for correctly solved puzzles, clever teamwork and creative task solutions. I remained reachable by phone the whole time in case questions came up or technical help was needed, so the teams could fully focus on the shared experience.
After three hours of intense puzzling everyone met back at the square in front of the forum in the palace park for the award ceremony. The weather cooperated, the atmosphere was upbeat and people were proud of the collaboration on display. It was especially nice to see how much this event strengthened the sense of togetherness: a team building experience in Ludwigsburg really works not just on paper, but out in the streets and squares of the city.
The winning team was Team33 — with 0 points, a result that provoked plenty of laughs and conversation. The teams in first through third place received their medals, while all participants left with broad smiles and fresh impressions. Experiences like this once again show how effective and fun a team building experience in Ludwigsburg can be.
Many thanks to Sika Deutschland GmbH for their trust — I look forward to the next tour through Ludwigsburg and to guiding more teams on exciting scavenger hunts.
