    The round tower, built around 1380, was used as a prison for a long time and naturally offered little comfort on its four floors with a diameter of eight meters.
    Built on the island's highest point, Schrannenplatz, the 35-meter high tower has always offered the best view of the surrounding area. The half-timbered corner towers of the octagonal roof, which was renovated in 2013, point in all four directions.
