An adventure through Detmold’s historical treasures
The route begins at Schloss Detmold, an architectural highlight that reflects the region’s past and sets a grand tone for the first clues of the Scavenger Hunt. From there, the journey winds past the Detmold Open-air Museum to catch a glimpse of rural life from earlier eras, then on to the Landestheater Detmold with its impressive presence. Other notable stops include Neues Palais (Detmold), Martin Luther Church (Detmold), Erlöserkirche, Holy Cross Church, Christuskirche, Bruchmauerstraße 37 and the Grabbe-Haus — each location offering its own atmosphere and puzzle-friendly corners for teams to explore.
Detmold – the perfect place for team building
Detmold’s compact historic centre, with its winding lanes and period buildings, creates countless opportunities for outdoor tasks and team challenges. The city’s welcoming character and culinary offerings make for a pleasant reward after the Scavenger Hunt — sampling a slice of Lippischer Pickert is a fitting way to round off a company outing and celebrate a successful run.
