Wikipedia (St. Georg (Nördlingen), 2023-02-17):
de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Georg_(Nördlingen)
“… Visible from afar is the 89.9 meter high church tower, which is called Daniel and is considered Nördlingen’s landmark; it dominates the cityscape and the landscape of the Giant Crater. This name goes back to Dan 2:48: “And the king exalted Daniel and made him ruler over all the land.”
350 steps lead to the viewing gallery above the tower room at a height of 70.30 meters. This allows a panoramic view over the roofs of the old town, the city wall and the surrounding villages up to the edge of the Ries. According to the city of Nördlingen, 99 church towers can be seen from this gallery. There is a late medieval running wheel on the 3rd level of the tower, which is 35.60 meters high. Prisoners once had to move it with their body weight to carry loads up the tower.
The tower room, located on the 8th level at a height of 66.40 meters, is constantly occupied by a tower guard...”
