    The "Old Tower" in Appenthal belonged to a respectable

    Sandstone church built in the late 15th century

    became. After the church as early as the 16th century

    had fallen into disrepair, the red sandstones were used for building houses

    reused. However, the walls of the tower were closed

    robust in order to be able to remove them as well. Hence he is

    today still an important cultural asset of the Elmstein Valley.

      Very beautiful tower ruins of an old pilgrimage church. In the square there is a beautiful fountain and benches for a rest.
