"With Horn and Halberd" – The night watchman tour

In addition to our market woman Güths Mariechen, the night watchman, equipped with horn and halberd, is also on the move in Gütersloh. Whereas the market women can be heard calling during the day, he ensures that there is law and order during the night. Anyone who is interested can accompany him on his way. City guide Klaus Gottenströter tours the city centre every month, usually on Friday evenings. The meeting point for the popular tour is the field behind the Apostelkirche. As dusk falls, the call of the night watchman can be heard there, who then takes the group on a guided tour of the city, sharing interesting facts about the city's history as well as exciting insights into the life of past centuries.
