PITTERMAN

Pitterman is a Cologne-based comedy and entertainment brand built around a costumed superhero character who playfully reimagines the city’s history. Presented as a hero who has secretly kept order in Cologne for 2,000 years, Pitterman leads guests through 11 humorous “milestones” of local history, blending familiar legends and traditions with comic storytelling. Topics include the supposed invention of Kölsch, the Heinzelmännchen, Saint Ursula, and the city’s “11 Cologne commandments.” The experience is designed for visitors and locals seeking an entertaining way to explore Cologne.

Pitterman offers public walking tours and exclusive private group bookings for company events, birthdays, and family celebrations; the site asks customers not to book bachelor or bachelorette parties. Public tours are listed for 2026 and 2027, meet at the Kreuzblume by Cologne Cathedral, and last approximately two and a half to three hours. The brand also provides a walking-act service for occasions such as weddings and other events, appearing as a messenger, guest greeter, Kölsch-wreath holder, or promotional figure.
