The bower in Eschwege is the only surviving building from the Middle Ages that is not used for religious purposes. Equipped with a fireplace or stove, it once served as a stone residential tower (in "Kemenate" is the Latin term "caminata" for fireplace, stove, hearth). The living room was above a vaulted cellar. Since 2002, the tin figure cabinet has invited visitors to the bower and the adjacent half-timbered building and offers a journey through 5000 years of world history. The history of the city is also presented here in small format. Opening times and further information: eschweger-zinnfigurenkabinett.de
