    The Powder Tower, dating from after 1300, is one of the towers in Grebenstein's generally well-preserved town fortifications.

    At the top of the tower, it is crowned with a beautiful Gothic finial.

    Grebenstein's historic city fortifications include the city walls around the old and new towns and four remaining towers: the Maiden's Tower, the Owl Tower, the Linden Tower and the Powder Tower. Grebenstein's city fortifications date back to the 14th century and are a protected cultural monument.

    The Powder Tower is a round tower with a preserved parapet on the east side of the town, between the tower on the northeast corner and the Niedertor. In 1779 it was still called the Isenacker Tower.
