On the road with the night watchman: Discover secret paths and legends in Honor

As the dwellers of Honor retire, the night watchman’s time comes. Ancient stories rekindle in the sputtery glow of the soot-filled lantern.

Highlights
  • 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.

Impressive tour with history and humor - Michi was a great storyteller. His stories on the Nightwatch tour had humor. Still, they felt you were transported back to the Middle Ages. The tour can be recommended to any Munich visitor.

Highly recommended! - The Nightwatchman tour was very entertaining and also educational. I live in Munich and have already done a lot of city tours. This time with a friend from Austria. Mrs. Feiler was a wonderful night watchman, she has a very funny manner and you could really immerse yourself in the time of the Middle Ages. I highly recommend the tour and will definitely book again.

Stories and history well combined! - The tour was a really good mix of entertaining and informative. The "Kathl" knew how to respond to all participants, so the two-hour Night Watch walk was a win for young and old!

Passionate guided tour in evening Munich - The “night watchwoman” played her part with incredible passion and told many a scary story from Munich’s city history.

Very entertaining and entertaining - Very funny, informative and entertaining. I booked the tour because I really wanted to learn about the city, but my fellow traveler finds "normal" city tours too boring. Our night watchman Matthias made the tour so entertaining that even my fellow traveler had a good time and talked about it the next day. I highly recommend the tour, especially if you want to learn more about medieval Munich.

Nightwatchman tour with interesting stories from the past - We really liked the tour! The stories were very interesting, but we would have liked 1-2 more landmarks (e.g. Viktualienmarkt) to be addressed. Besides, it would have been nice if the night watchman had been directly in his role and not only after the organizational had started with it.
