    On the left side of the tower, a staircase leads to the battlement. The tower keeper lived on the top floor and had to watch over the peace of the city. If guests wanted to enter at night, he had to call the mayor, because only in his presence was he allowed to lower the drawbridge and open the small entrance gate.
