The tower originally had a red roof, which gave it its name. The tower was the emperor's last refuge and is therefore extremely solidly built.

The three construction phases can be recognized by the different types of stone in the tower.

During a tour (on the weekend) you can explore the interior, including the toilet.

The outer Nuremberg tower was only built later in the 17th century.

The Red Tower in Bad Wimpfen is an impressive defensive tower from the Hohenstaufen period. It is the eastern keep of the imperial palace and was built from massive humped ashlars. The tower served as the last refuge of the castle lord in the event of an attack.
