Zeughauskeller

This guide to Zeughauskeller in Zurich opens with the local legend that William Tell's own crossbow came from this arsenal, and the math that makes it impossible, since Tell's shot predates this Zeughaus by nearly two centuries. It follows what the building actually was: a working city armory where Zurich's militia weapons were stored, cleaned, and repaired for close to four hundred and forty years. Look up at the halberds and armor still mounted along these walls as you listen; they aren't props.
