Utrecht Lumen walk
Distance
3km
When daylight fades and darkness descends, Utrecht Lumen’s illuminated tales of the city come to life. These works of art shine a special light on the history, the residents and the function or symbolism of particular buildings and locations. Some light artworks play with architectural features. And many are to be found in surprising places that are off the beaten track or might easily be overlooked during the day.
The artworks of Utrecht Lumen can be seen 7 days a week from sunset to midnight.
