    The Swister Tower, a relic of a parish and pilgrimage church from the 12th century that was dedicated to the holy virgins Fides, Spes and Caritas, is visible from afar on the foothills.
    At the same time, it is a remnant of the village of Swist on the mountain, which was abandoned in the 16th century. The church building was demolished in 1828/30 because it was in a state of disrepair. In order to provide a place of worship for those who continue to make pilgrimages there, a prayer room was set up in the tower in 1854.
