    The Spitaltor, the church tower of the Spitalkirche, was a gate in the city wall before the city was expanded. After the city was expanded, the gate was used as a church tower. The core of the Spitaltor dates from the 14th century. In 1728, the church tower was raised as part of the Baroque renovation. The octagonal upper floor has a mansard roof with a lantern on top. There is a narrow walkway between the mansard roof and the sandstone balustrade. During the renovation from 1993 to 2005, the tower clock, including the dials and hands, were replaced.
