Why this tower is called "Hexentürmchen" and since when is unknown. Unfortunately, from this tower, which was part of the pre-fortification of Balduinseck Castle, there are no more remains of the wall Stream into the opposite slope and continue parallel to the road to a steeply sloping rock ledge.

It is not known why this flank remained unsecured. Source: Text information board
