    Unthinkable for today: It is late evening and outside it is pitch black. On the panes of the living rooms one can only imagine that a candle light must flicker inside. Towards the end of the 18th century, the first sooty oil and petroleum lamps were available at home and on the streets; So-called night watchmen were responsible for the safety of the residents. And a new profession arose: the lantern lighter. In Alt-Willich the sculpture of the "Lateere-Pit" reminds of it.

      Gas lanterns used to be lit by hand. Unimaginable today.

        I recommend you to do the tour when it is in bloom. and if you know better ways to get there than through the city, go ahead.
