The 84 m high tower was built in late gothic style from 1418- 1506. It was the tallest building in the city in the Middle Ages. Destroyed in World War II, it was completely rebuilt in 1976. Striking is the Roland figure at the foot of the tower, which is back in its original place since 2006.

The Red Tower, a free-standing bell tower, together with the towers of the Marktkirche, is the city's landmark. The construction of the 84 meter high tower was completed in 1506. With its 76 bells, the Red Tower has the largest carillon in Europe and the third largest carillon in the world. The five clock bells acoustically indicate the time every quarter of an hour. Since the melody of the clock chime corresponds exactly to that of Big Ben in London, this tone is also called the "Westminster chime".
