Overview

Experience Leipzig when it gets dark – but forget dusty clichés. Our “Nightwatch 2.0” is the modern answer to the classic tour. We don’t wear a costume and a hellebard and instead focus on “lights on!”.

The highlight : your guide has a mobile light projector with him. At selected stations we throw historical close-ups directly onto the walls of the city centre. You see on the spot the direct comparison between then and now. History is not only told here, but made visible.

Your comfort : We use high quality headsets. You enjoy full freedom of movement, can take pictures and still understand every word of the guide crystal clear - without any effort.

This walking tour is perfect for couples and culture lovers looking for informed history rather than just listening to anecdotes. Discover the illuminated city with us and look behind the facades. Authentic, innovative and unforgettable!
