The Wallwachhäuser, here the Limesturm, developed in the context of the education of the garden kingdom Dessau Wörlitz after the devastating flood at the end of the 18th century. The Wallwachhaus Limesturm on the edge of Lake Schönnitz is today part of the UNESCO World Heritage.

The Limesturm is a very nice place for a short break. There are two benches under the big oak tree and on the surrounding waters you may find a few swans. But since there are no trash cans there, please do not forget to take your own trash.
