Prague, 1633. The gates lock at dusk. The streets belong to one man with a halberd, a lantern, and zero patience for curfew breakers. Three centuries later, he's still out there — and tonight, he's letting you tag along. Walk Prague's Old Town after dark with a guide in full 17th-century nightwatchman costume. Over 90 minutes, hear the true story of 27 executions on Old Town Square in 1621, stand where Mozart's Don Giovanni had its world premiere, and learn medieval fire safety rules that somehow involve mandatory beer. The tour ends with the nightwatchman's traditional horn call — loud, sudden, and unforgettable. This is history with character, not a guidebook recited aloud. Real stories, real locations, real cobblestones underfoot, and a guide who takes his 400-year-old job disturbingly seriously. Small groups. Available in English, German and Portuguese. Suitable for all ages.
Meet your Nightwatchman outside one of Prague’s 13 original city gates. Learn about the halberd (two metres, multipurpose: boars, intruders, Habsburgers - as needed), the duties of the night watch, and why Prague’s city walls were 10—12 metres high with a killing ground in between. Also: a brief but sincere warning about cutpurses, pickpockets and electric scooters - the unholy trinity of Old Town hazards, then and now.
