On the road with the night watchman
When the citizens of Honor go to sleep, the hour of the night watchman strikes. Old legends come to life in the flickering light of the sooty lantern. The night watchman knows all the secret paths and corners of the city. With his halberd and waving coat, he shows the right way in the darkness of the city.

(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
St. Peter's Church
First, this city tour takes you to Munich's oldest church, the Old Peter. The night watchman saw with his own eyes how the devil once hung on the top of Old Peter's tower and fought with the watchman. That is the reason why the tower is still slightly crooked today. After a few steps we are already in the old cemetery and discover stone evidence of the past. What funeral customs were there in the past and where does the saying come from that stinks to heaven?
Old Town Hall
We cross the old city moat of the 12th century and go to the old city gate at the old town hall. The bean counter was also a good acquaintance of the night watchman.
Alter Hof
Passing the torture chamber and city prison, the city tour goes along the old city wall into Burgstraße to the Alten Hof, the first castle of the Bavarian dukes in Munich. The night watchman was also present at the Impler uprising. The citizens managed to chase the duke out of his castle at short notice.
