The Night Watchman of Bonn
Get to know this truly beautiful city on the river Rhine which has been inhabited since Roman times, and even before that, by taking an evening candlelit stroll through Bonn in 1698 with Master John the night watchman and chance returning a wiser person than you once departed.
- Learn about religious and political wars, witchcraft, incarcerations and executions.
- Hear about Master Hans the executioner from the dark side and why the German Purity Law from 1516, governing the brewing of wholesome beer, was such a thoroughly good thing that it stood the test of time for many centuries to come.
- Learn the contrast between spine chillingly rough public justice on the one hand and the sometimes astonishing charitable human compassion on the other.
- Why does Bonn have a Minster instead of a Cathedral?

Interesting and funny nightwatch
It was an overall excellent experience we would warmly recommend Bonn tourists as well Bonn citizens!!!
The guide explained everything in such a manner and by so many anecdotes that you could well imagine to live in the Middle Ages.
It was really worth having done this night watch!
