»Rundgang der Mythen« "Corridor(s) of Legends" Explanation: Here's a link to the English Spiegel description of the museum. Apparently they've already called the 'Rundgang' a 'walk' through the 'Myth Rooms'! (Ugly though that might be.) If you can track down what it actually looks like you might want to choose an expression with 'corridor(s)' or the like - eg. "Corridor(s) of Legends". I don't think I'd recommend anything with a 'mystery tour' as it implies the people will get lost along the way!! (Or were you intending to allude to the Beatles' 'Magical Mystery Tour'?? - again, perhaps not quite right for mercedes-benz, but see what the others have to say.) I suggest you consult other parts of the article, too, as it may well save you a lot of work otherwise (- you've already requested an architectural term.) http://service.spiegel.de/cache/international/spiegel/0,1518... |

Walk ((number)): The Legends ((or: The Myths)) / The Legend ((etc.)) Walk / Legend ((etc.)) tour Explanation: Knotty question. Agree with Sandy re. Mystery... for all its appeal. "Rundgang" gets me dictionary-&-web-browsing every time. In a museum context, usually 'tour', 'walk', in looser sub-contexts than the present one even plain 'visit'. Also agree re. strained Spiegel article. If it's an option, it'd be worth "getting in there" & having the mus. PR use 'gallery', 'hall', 'display' etc., for 'rooms' (I see why 'corridor' but - to me - that evokes a pretty narrow space). Legends/Myths: choice 'll depend on whether that display set is more about true (ish) legends or false (ish) myths. |
