Five-story gate tower, also referred to as Haberntor in 1337, with city clock and "poor sinner bell". The roof with the turrets lends the building its characteristic appearance, which dates back to around 1500. Every year on Fasnacht, the tower is disguised as the largest carnival fool in the world.
