      Straubing's landmark is the city tower. It was built from 1316 to the end of the 16th century in the middle of the new town, founded in 1218, which is now the historical center. It was a watchtower against fire and enemies, a clock tower and a bell tower and, as the first town hall tower, a symbol of citizenship. 68 m high and eight storeys high, with its characteristic five peaks visible from afar, it is not inferior to the famous belfries of Flanders. It offers a wonderful view of the city, the Danube Valley, the Gäuboden and the foothills of the Bavarian Forest.
