    The Reck or Hunger Tower is essentially a late antique horseshoe tower that was remodeled in the Middle Ages. After investigations into the foundations of the tower, Roman-era building material was found. Today, the Hunger Tower houses the Traismauer City Museum (formerly the Local History Museum).
