Night watchman tour

When dusk falls over the alleyways of Radolfzell’s old town and the last voices of the day fade away, the time of the night watchman begins. With a lantern, halberd and plenty of narrative flair, he guides you through a Radolfzell that often remains hidden during the day. Step by step, a world full of stories, little secrets and great events from centuries past opens up to you.

With a keen eye and a twinkle in his eye, the night watchman recalls his former task: to ensure peace and security, report fires and keep an eye on the night-time goings-on. His stories make you smile, make you think and shed a warm light on life in a time without streetlights and modern conveniences.

Whether locals or guests – this 1.5-hour tour invites you to rediscover Radolfzell. More slowly, more intensively and with all your senses. When night falls over the town at the end of the tour, you will not only be left with the echo of old stories, but also with the feeling that you have come a little closer to Radolfzell.

Tickets must be purchased in advance at the Radolfzell Tourist Information Office or online at Reservix.

The Radolfzell Tourist Information team will be happy to take group inquiries on +49 7732 / 81 500 or info@radolfzell-tourismus.de.
