Tips
The tower got its name because of its blue slate roof.
Once he had an underground dungeon.translated by

Picturesque tower - the highlight, however, is the open-air exhibition of an artistic blacksmith located in it.
translated by•April 29, 2023
The name is derived from the slate roofing - northeastern corner of the local fortifications (1513), later a floor was added - the tower was also used for the penal system of the sovereign jurisdiction.
