    A footbridge next to the bell tower allows the foundations of the chapel to be seen from above.

      The Thomas Chapel is a castle chapel next to the bell tower, which was dedicated to the Apostle Thomas, an original round building with a copper roof, which was robbed by the French - the building itself was spared from the blasts. Until 1810, the Romanesque rotunda stood next to the bell tower, which was probably built in the 11th century.

      Due to the weather, the Thomas chapel fell into disrepair and was partially removed. Today only the foundations next to the bell tower remain. The chapel of the imperial palace in Goslar is directly related to St. Thomas.
