With Lantern Through the Streets of Bad Wimpfen
When the old town becomes quieter in the evening, a special discovery experience begins in Bad Wimpfen: the Night Watchman Tour. Equipped with a lantern, horn, and halberd, the night watchman leads through winding alleys, past the traces of the Staufer period and into the atmosphere of a town where history is still palpable. The tour combines local history, humorous anecdotes, and valuable insights into the cultural heritage of the old town.

Historical Setting with Great Appeal
Bad Wimpfen is one of the most distinctive historical urban spaces in the region. The tour takes place exactly where half-timbered houses, city walls, and medieval structures create a particularly dense picture. Along the way, you experience selected places in the old town and learn what life was like without electricity, television, and modern lighting.
