The Haags Tower in Oberwesel is part of the city fortifications and was acquired and restored in 1865 by the painter Carl Haag. The tower has been owned by the Höhn family since 1997, who use it as a living and art space.
Gallery owner Barbara Höhn has been organizing exhibitions for over fifteen years. She is co-founder of DiDa Art e.V. and realized the Oberwesel sculpture park with twenty sculptures in cooperation with the state of Rhineland-Palatinate.
