Night Watchman's Walk After Dark: 24 October – 7 November 2026, Skibsklarerergaarden, Helsingør.

As autumn arrives, the night watchman from Museum Helsingør lights his lantern and leads participants through Helsingør's historic quarters. Dressed in an authentic watchman's costume and armed with the city's stories, he brings the past to life in the darkness.

The tour returns to the programme following strong demand. The last time it was offered, it sold out quickly.

About the venue: Skibsklarerergaarden

Skibsklarerergaarden on Strandgade 91 is the best-preserved building from Helsingør's Sound Dues era. The house dates to the 16th century but took its current form in the 1780s and has changed little since. The ground floor holds a ship's chandlery founded in 1809 - Denmark's oldest surviving shop interior - alongside a captain's parlour, while the first floor recreates the ship handler's private home as it looked between 1790 and 1850. The museum is part of Museum Helsingør and opens according to a seasonal programme.
