        The middle defense tower of the ring wall complex on Kuglerhang was completed in 1480. The Reiterbild facing the city side was renewed in 1968 by the artist Paul Kälberer. In the ring wall tower with the rider image, the Cultural and Museum Association maintains a museum of military history.

            Beautiful circular wall path with the inner and outer circular wall tower. With a wonderful view of the old town of Horb am Neckar with its collegiate church Heilig Kreuz and the rogue center. 🤩👍

                      Beautiful way over the city. On Sundays and public holidays avoid too many strollers. And on the single trail always in oncoming traffic descend the happy also the hiker :)

With its loopholes over the Torwärterhäuschen of Altheimer gate located outer ring wall tower protected together with four other round towers and four half-moon the part of the outer city wall ring, which was placed around the suburb in the valley. This fort was built in the 15th century using the most up-to-date weapons technology, and the defensive Horber citizens defended the city wall with heavy arquebuses that would scare the advancing enemy even if it smelled the smoldering matches.
