"Katzentürmle" / city fortifications, Bad Saulgau
The so-called "Katzentürmle" is the smallest of the former city towers and the only one that is still preserved. The name goes back to its function as a "carceration", i.e. a detention cell, as was the case at universities and higher schools in particular. It has not yet been researched whether in Saulgau only the pupils of the schools had to go to prison for offenses, nor whether the tower was also used for defense purposes - the arrow slits in the lower part indicate this.

City fortifications, Bad Saulgau
Saulgau was fortified very early; "in burgo sulgen" was documented as early as 1249, which indicates that the town was fortified. This consisted of a wide moat, which was followed by the city wall, which in many places also formed the outer wall of the houses. Thus, the house owners were responsible for construction and maintenance. In some places, such as the city museum, Buchau office building, Bogengasse 15 or the Heim bakery, this combination of house wall and city wall is still preserved. In some places, a low outer wall was also in front of the moat.

Beverage tax for the city wall, Bad Saulgau
The city fortifications were probably of poor quality from the beginning - also due to the notorious lack of money. As early as 1372, therefore, Duke Leopold III. the city the privilege of collecting a "wine fee", i.e. a kind of beverage tax, in order to be able to pay for repairs to the wall. The city's statutes also mention fines that anyone who breaks the wall has to pay. In any case, the Saulgau people seem to have had no confidence in the defensive effectiveness of their city walls. Because in 1641 the people of Riedlingen were informed on request, "... since the city wall had collapsed, one did not want to and could not defend oneself in the slightest."
