        The Blood Tower, a remnant of the medieval city fortifications, stands on Promenadenstrasse. This 13th-century fortified tower was once used as a prison, where torture also took place. The name 'Blood Tower' probably derives from the fact that a lot of blood must have flowed during the torture. Nowadays it is much more peaceful in the thick walls: the blood tower can be rented for children's birthday parties.
