NightWatchman Tour

Once the day’s work is done, you can see the Old Town in a whole new light. Take a journey back in time as you accompany the nightwatchman on his evening patrol of Düsseldorf’s historical centre. The glow of the lanterns reveals the deeper meanings of some of its anecdotes.

As you follow the candlelight over cobbles and down narrow lanes, this guided tour with a nightwatchman through Düsseldorf’s Altstadt (Old Town) truly brings history to life. Who better to shed light on the nightly goings-on through the ages than the nightwatchman, who has guided and protected the citizens of Düsseldorf across the centuries.

“Hear ye this…” The nightwatchman’s call announces that he has something to tell his audience. About buildings and squares with colourful histories, such as St Lambert’s Church, Burgplatz square and the castle tower, about the past and the present, about the incredible and the enlightening.
