Sehr schöne Tour mit dem (weiblichen) Nachtwächter "Konrad". Es war gut möglich mit der abwechslungsreichen Führung in die Stadt und ihre Geschichte abzutauchen. Angereichert mit kurzgefassten aber interessanten Erzählungen aus früheren Zeiten, direkten Bezügen in unsere Zeit und Ursprünge gebräuchlicher Redewendungen. Dazu Gebäude und Details im noch vorhanden Gemäuer u.a. aufgezeigt. Ein Erlebnis weit entfernt von überfrachteten Informationen und Langweilige. Beisternd und zugleich unaufdringlich erzählt, was Lust macht zum weiteren selbst entdecken. Absolute Empfehlung - Vielen Dank 😊

Unsere "Nachtwächtertochter" Sophia war absolut spitze!!! Sie ist völlig in ihrer Rolle aufgegangen und wir ertappten uns dabei tatsächlich zu glauben sie kommt aus einer anderen Zeit... Sie hat es sehr interessant für uns alle gemacht und hatte wirklich auf alle Fragen von uns eine Antwort!!! Wir waren alle begeistert!!!

Einziger Veränderungsvorschlag wäre, dass man mit einem lokalen Restaurant ausmachen könnte, dass der Nachtwächter während der Tour dort reingehen kann, um dem „Studenten“(Gäste) zu sagen dass sie leiser sein sollen ,… Um den Beruf als Nachtwächter in Aktion zu sehen
