    The approximately 1 km long medieval fortification made of slate quarry stones with a city wall and seven towers was built around Dausenau and was completed in 1359.
    Of the towers, the Zollturm (gate tower), the Ackertsturm, the Fuhsturm, the Ratzenturm, the Christiansturm, the Drehersturm and the Leaning Tower have been preserved almost completely or in rudimentary form.
    Of the gates, the gate of the customs tower, the castle gate of the Ratzenturm with the stream flowing through it, the ferry gate and the Fischbach gate have been preserved.
    From the bridge you have the most beautiful view of the fortifications of Dausenau with the approximately 18 meter high customs tower and the well-preserved circular wall with battlement. You also have a beautiful view of the town hall, the Fischbach Gate, the ferry gate and the approximately 18 meter high Leaning Tower.

      The short village tour through Dausenau is worthwhile: past the Ratzenturm, the stream passage and along the town wall.
