Description
The night watchman tour takes you back 800 years to medieval Munich, a small city about 400 meters in diameter, once enclosed by protective walls. At night, the city gates closed and residents were required to stay indoors. The night watchman patrolled the dark streets, his lantern the only source of light, protecting the townsfolk from danger.
Most citizens were illiterate and relied on superstition, living by the 'divine order.' Join the night watchman as he shares stories of medieval life in the 'City of the Monks,' from birth to death, revealing how people lived during this period.
