    Hiking

    Because it is one of the most beautiful places in Bad Salzuflen: a walk across the church square, past the tower, down into the old town.

    Somewhat hidden here you can find part of the old city wall and the Katzenturm. There are also some really nicely renovated half-timbered houses on Turmstraße.

    The imposing defensive tower, built in the second half of the 15th century, bears the unusual name "Katzenturm" (Cat Tower). It is the only one of three defensive towers originally built into the city wall that has survived.

    The Katzenturm was once part of an "early warning system." It stood at the highest point of the city fortifications.
