Historical city tour

The Bocholt night watchman greets his guests at St George's Fountain in medieval dress, with halberd and bugle.

On his 90-minute tour of the town, he guides participants through the dark alleyways by the light of his lantern and through the history of the town of Bocholt in 1665. He explains the history of buildings, squares and streets with humour and knowledge and talks vividly about the everyday life of the townspeople.

The participation fee is 9.50 euros/person.
