The city wall surrounds the old town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber for about four kilometers. You can follow it via the Rothenburger Turmweg. This leads around the city, on information boards he informs about the towers, their meaning and the special features. Those who are interested should ask for the Turmweg brochure (also available in English) at the Tourist Information on the market square: The entire route and the sights are described in detail in the brochure.
