October 31, 2022 - The listed Reckturm Wr. Neustadt is a sight in itself. The northwestern corner tower of the former city wall has also housed a museum since 1957. Since 1994 there has been a private museum in the Reckturm on the subject of "Firearms then and now". Here you can view a variety of rifles, historical cutting and stabbing weapons, matchlock weapons and K&K army equipment. There are also historical pictures of the history of the city of Wiener Neustadt and the Reckturm. Appointments for group tours of 10 or more people are possible by arrangement outside opening hours.

The Reckturm is easy to find because of its size, it is located on the corner of Petersgasse and Reyergasse.

The foundations of the listed tower date from the early 13th century. The tower initially served to protect the city and was used as an official and prison building from the beginning of modern times. Towards the end of the 19th century, the tower and the adjoining city wall began to be demolished. In 1901/02, however, the Wiener Neustadt art historian Franz Staub managed to stop the demolition work and began the historical reconstruction of the tower in the style of the 15th century.
