The core of the only rectangular tower in the medieval city fortifications is made of quarry stone. He secured the point where the Mühlenbach left the city. Its name is derived from this function: Kalle = (stream) channel. In the 19th century the tower was expanded in brick. It was widened by two window axes and raised by one floor. During this time, the Kallenturm served as a prison; today the St. George Boy Scouts are at home here. Source: rhein-voreifel-touristik.de/poi/kallenturm
