By Joop on 1 November 2020 Utrecht

A Utrecht tale of light 

Trajectum Lumen is an evening walk through the historic Centre of Utrecht. You will see several objects that are artistically lightened. Within Trajectum Lumen there are 25 artworks of light from domestic and foreign artists en students from de HKU University of the Arts Utrecht. You can see the light art every day, from sundown till midnight. When night falls you’ll be amazed by the beauty of historic Utrecht.

City guided tour

The best time to make this beautiful City walk tour is on a Saturday and combine it with a visit to het Domplein.  This tour is under the guidance of a local guide, it takes about 1,5 hours and starts in front of the Tourist Information Centre on Domplein and ends on the Mariaplaats. Book your tour online or buy your ticket at the Tourist Information Centre, Domplein 9 in Utrecht. Open daily from 10.00 AM till 5.00 PM. This tour will only cost you € 9,75 per person and is an absolute must-do so put it on your bucket list.

You can walk this Citywalk also without a guide. It’s easier with the map you find here.  
But you can also follow the orange light arrows incorporated in the sidewalks, they will lead you through the historic centre of Utrecht and guidance you on the route of Trajectum Lumen.
Special points are marked with a blue light.

End this fantastic walking tour with a nice drink and snack in one of the nice cafes that you find on or near Domplein.

A nice place to sit down is by Soep-er on Vismarkt, Jozef on Mariaplaats or eat a nice cake or fabulous pie by Bond and Smolders on Lijnmarkt.
