Once likely situated at the boundary between the original town layout and the first town expansion dating from before 1230, the so-called "Moser Tower" is now integrated into the house at Schulgasse 10. The three-story defensive tower has a ground plan in the shape of an outwardly curved triangle, resembling the prow of a ship. The masonry of the tower and that of the town wall in this area dates from the second half of the 13th century and is thus among the oldest surviving parts of Zwettl's town fortifications.
