The Leonhardsturm, on the southern edge of the historic old town, was part of the former city fortifications of Alsfeld. It stood next to the former Fuldertor in front of the city wall in a corner of the moat.

Leonhardsturm (also called stork's nest) can be seen from afar. In the last few years the storks have taken a liking to him again.
