With its thick walls of up to 2.7 metres at the bottom and 1.8 metres at the top, it is a real bulwark. Today you can rent the tower for events - from stylish aperitifs to unforgettable family celebrations.

Zug was once surrounded by a protective city wall. In the southeast corner stood the powder tower, where the gunpowder was stored. Today you can rent the powder tower for birthdays etc.
