      Zons with its city walls is definitely worth a visit.

        The Krötschenturm built at the north-west corner, which temporarily served as a defense tower, watchtower or dungeon, storage and storage facility. It cannot be ruled out that this tower took in sick people in times of the plague in order to isolate them from healthy people, and that this is probably why it was given the name Krötschenturm ("en al Krötsch" means something like a person who is always ill).
