Esens - League of Bears - Outdoor - Escape Room East Frisia

Once upon a time, there existed a secret society—the Brotherhood of Bears.

This guild was made up of brave citizens, sailors, and merchants from the town. Their mission was to protect Esens and safeguard a precious secret: an ancient message of freedom, hidden somewhere in the town’s alleyways. According to legend, the members of the alliance left numerous signs, riddles, and clues throughout the city. They hid symbols on houses, in old maps, and even in secret messages inside bottles that had once washed ashore from the North Sea. But one day, the alliance vanished without a trace. All that remained was one final message

“Whoever understands the spirit of the bear will discover the city’s secret.” For many years, the mystery remained unsolved.
