Laa Castle

An imposing structure of stone walls with a churning tower and a low square tower served mainly to supply and secure the weir. The castle was built in the 13th century. In 1564, almost the entire city and parts of the fortifications and also the castle were cremated by a conflagration. Around 1786, the castle was privately owned. In 2007 Laa Castle was bought by the municipality of Laa.
