Hiking

The Pfister Castle, as it is popularly known, is based on a corner tower of the city wall, which was apparently built sturdy enough to house cannons. The adjoining neoclassical residential building was built on the filled moat in the second half of the 19th century. The octagonal structure with its numerous windows placed on top of the tower is a 19th-century decorative measure.
