Züri Märlitram

The Zurich lion is lying in the sun at Zurich Zoo when a strange figure flits past: the Böögg. He is lost and is urgently looking for the craftspeople who are supposed to make his likeness for the festival of Sechseläuten. The Zurich lion knows the city like the back of his paw and wants to help – but is worried that he will frighten everyone. The Böögg comes up with a plan for how they can set off together despite this.

In the guild workshop, preparations for Sechseläuten are in full swing – until the members realize that the most important thing of all is missing: the Böögg! The carpenter has wood but no nails, and they need a solution quickly. Piece by piece, the Böögg is somehow created anyway, with white clothes, belly, and face. But just as they think they’ve finished, the next problem comes along.

Nesa is looking for her little goat, Fiorella – but it has completely vanished, and Nesa thinks it may have strayed in the direction of Zurich. Although it’s a long way, she sets off on the journey, the landscape becoming ever more urban. In Zurich she meets Chrigi, who helps her on her search mission. But the children suddenly find themselves surrounded by the hustle and bustle of Sechseläuten. Will they find Fiorella amongst all the banners, music, and crowds of people?
