Digital treasure hunt "Traces of Jewish Culture"

As part of an Erasmus+ school project, a special scavenger hunt was created by an international group of students in Regensburg in April 2019: anyone can use the "Actionbound" app to search for Jewish traces in the World Heritage Site of Regensburg. The students have also designed an English-language "Experience City Map", which invites you to take a self-guided tour of the old town with lots of information on sights and interesting stops.
