It is the largest preserved defensive tower of the inner city wall. It is one of the oldest buildings in Korbach and was built at the beginning of the 14th century. The tower was named after the noble family of Tylen, who lived in the immediate vicinity of the tower. Remnants of the battlements have been preserved to this day and have been partially reconstructed. In 1996, thanks to an initiative by the marksmen's guild and the generosity of Korbach citizens, the Tylen Tower was given a roof and a staircase again. For a long time, it was also used as a prison, where criminals had to wait for the death penalty to be carried out without light, on bread and water. The dungeon only had an entrance hatch. Today, you can visit the tower from the inside. All you have to do is get a key for the gate lock from the tourist information office in the town hall. There are 129 steps to the top.
