46 towers can be found in the old town of Rothenburg. Most are along the city walls, at the six gates into the city and along the fortifications. Within the old town are the towers of the first city wall, the town hall tower and the towers of St. Jakob. Most of the Tower Trail runs along the city wall, while a small section goes around it.
