Night Watchman Guided Tour of Dresden Image 1

As darkness falls, the night watchman’s hour strikes. His horn echoes in the narrow streets and the light of his lantern penetrate the darkness around. He protects the citizens from robbers and rabble in the darkest corners with his halberd. Begin this mysterious tour with a nightcap. At the stroke of twilight, hear stories of the days of yore in the middle of the historic tour of Dresden.

Learn stories about Zwinger, an impressive baroque palace. As you pass by Dresden’s stately baroque theatre, the Semperoper, hear colorful anecdotes from your night watchman. Admire the Fürstenzug, a gorgeous mural, depicting a procession of Saxony’s rulers. See the Frauenkirche, a majestic Lutheran church, topped with an impressive dome. End your day in an experience unlike any other, a highlight for you in Dresden.
