Tour through Heidelberg in the footsteps of the night watchmen
4.9 / 5 · 113 traveler reviews
The night watchman tells entertainingly about the things that one experienced in the nocturnal alleys of Heidelberg, about the history of the city, its streets and squares, about its local originals, personalities and the most beautiful anecdotes. A very educational and fun tour through the centuries.
