    Originally the Lister Tower was a guard tower of the medieval Hanoverian Landwehr (first mentioned in 1387). The old buildings - the associated forester's house and the tower - were demolished in the middle of the 19th century and replaced in 1895 by a romanticized replica by Hermann Schaedtler. In the spring of 1933, the National Socialists ran an unofficial prison with a torture cellar in the building. A plaque commemorates the prisoners and victims today. The building survived the Second World War unscathed and temporarily housed the University of Music, Theater and Media. Today the tower serves as a leisure home for the state capital Hanover. There is a beer garden next to him.
