Tips
The Musegg Wall is the longest city wall preserved in one piece in Switzerland.
It is 870 meters long, approximately 9 meters high, and 1.5 meters wide. Today, 9 of the 30 towers remain: the Nölli Tower, the Männli Tower, the Luegisland Tower, the Wacht Tower, the Zyt Tower, the Schirmer Tower, the Pulver Tower, the Allenwinden Tower, and the Dächli Tower. This saying helps you remember the towers:
"Nölli, Männli, Lueg is Land, Bewach mer d'Zyt, Bescherm mer s'Polver und em Allewende s'Dächli."translated by
