Ajaxturm

The 1836 designated Ajaxturm stands in the corridor "Heerkretz". The legendary, unusual in size and shape, vineyard storm is also found in Siefersheim local coat of arms.

The following story is told about the origins of the Ajaxturm: At the beginning of the 19th century a rich farmer's son lived in Siefersheim, beautiful in form and a quick dancer. As he walked through the streets, many a scary girl's gaze followed him. Even the daughter of the miller of the "Katzensteiger mill" was in love with him. The affection of the girl found a response. But the stubborn Müller was against a connection. He once lost a case against the father of the young man years ago. The daughter was married to a wine merchant and soon died of heartbreak. The young man, however, remained unmarried. At the place where he had once met with his sweetheart, he had a tower built - the Ajax Tower.

Beautiful tower, but you can not go up.

Nice tower, but unfortunately you can't go up there
