This piece of city wall was restored with a battlement. You used to be able to walk around the entire city using the battlements. The city's citizens were able to fend off attackers there. The battlement is accessible! For me one of the most beautiful places in Bietgigheim.
From there you can also see the artwork Horse Tower (or something like that) from a different angle. Towards the town you can see the tower of the town church from the battlement.
