Modell

Tübingen now also exists in tiny size: As a bronze model of the old city in scale 1:500.

The model is especially intended for use by blind people who can touch every house and finger their way through the town. Descriptions of important buildings and streets are available in Braille on the model. The houses are quite detailed and built very exact after the originals, while the terrain has a few less precise parts.

The model was built by artist Felix Boerken in 2017, bought by the Lions Club and then donated to the municipality of Tübingen. On March 14th 2018 it was officially presented and since then waits in front of the town museum for interested locals and visitors.

 

The Cache:

You are looking for a little round plastic container of similar size as a film container.

The challenge is to find a moment where you can grab the cache despite all the muggels. If the model is surrounded by muggles you might need to wait. Please use the hint if you expect to be watched.

I assume that the cache can be found by wheelchair drivers and blind people without help. If you try, please tell me how it went (either in your log or by mail).

Archived 26 May 2022 ekorren has archived the cache

Ich räume gerade mein Profil etwas auf und habe mich entschieden, den Cache in der bisherigen Form zu archivieren. Die Lebensdauer der Dosen war ja doch immer recht kurz und ich habe zur Zeit nicht mehr die Möglichkeit, bei Bedarf jederzeit kurzfristig mal eben vorbeizuschauen.

Aber ruhig mal abwarten: Ich habe nämlich eine konkrete Idee für einen Nachfolger, der etwas langlebiger sein könnte. Mal schauen... stay tuned...

Temporarily not available 05 February 2022 ekorren has disabled the cache

Cachekontrolle - leider nichts gefunden.

Weiß nicht, ob ich die Dose nochmal reaktiviere.

Not found 14 September 2021 Wuchtel did not find the geoacache

Wir konnten hier heute leider keine Dose finden, obwohl wir das Objekt schließlich nicht nur befühlt, sondern auch auf Knien untersucht haben. Schade, denn die Idee hat uns gut gefallen.
