Der Nachtwächter hat das Geschichtliche mit sehr viel Komik vermittelt, es gab immer was zu lachen. Daher war es nicht so trocken wie man es ab und zu kennt von Stadtführungen.

You will also pass by the Lingner Palace where you can peek into the well-mowed gardens, where lavish parties were once hosted. Marvel at the trio castles, majestically built with huge towers, perched on the rocks. On your way back you will come across the Wasserwerk Saloppe, a water tower disguised as a Venetian palazzo, a charming site to admire.
