      The Witches' Tower (actually: Hessenturm) from the 14th century was part of Bad Homburg's city fortifications. The tower that remains today is a reconstruction that was built at the beginning of the 19th century in connection with the construction of the Ritter von Marx Bridge. The bridge, built in 1903-05, spans the old town, the castle square was closed off with the tower and a corresponding "bridge keeper's house" and an entrance to the city center was created.
