The Suhle tower between Mellrichstadt and Hainhof belonged, together with other towers on the hills, to a medieval security system. At that time, aggression against the small villages and towns was always to be expected. Almost every settlement also had a protective wall. Very well preserved in Mellrichstadt, Fladungen or Bad Neustadt. Fortified churches also testify to a certain truthfulness in those times.
