Step into a cheerful world of color and imagination—the pedestrian tunnel in Singen, once a rather dreary underpass, is now a spectacular work of art. 88 different shades and 100 color panels stretch across the walls and ceiling, creating a lively, inspiring atmosphere that instantly lifts your spirits. In addition, 120 imaginative mythical creatures adorn the walls, designed by 75 dedicated students from Singen, adding an extra dose of cheerfulness underground.
The tunnel is not only an artistic highlight but also an important connecting route: it leads from Singen train station directly under the tracks toward the Maggi factory and connects the downtown area, the northern part of the city, and the southern part of the city. With its colorful design, the tunnel has become a popular tourist attraction and photo spot, especially for visitors looking to discover unique, creative places in Singen.
The tunnel was designed under the direction of designer Bert Binnig in close collaboration with Sauter GmbH Singen and local students. The result is a place that is not only functional but also artistically impressive—a true hidden gem for families, strollers, art lovers, and photography enthusiasts.
Whether as a cultural highlight, a photo opportunity, or a colorful passageway—the tunnel in Singen demonstrates how creative urban design can enhance everyday city life and transform the downtown area into a vibrant experience. It’s worth a visit any time of year and offers inspiration, fun, and colorful sights for people of all ages.
