Guided Story

Look up, do you see the elegant peak of the tower? Imagine standing here centuries ago when it served not just as a viewpoint but as a crucial watchtower. As you let your gaze wander, to your left is the grand Oberkirche Sankt Nikolai, another historical gem. Just behind you to the south, you'll find the old power station, a testament to the city's industrial past. Did you know the tower was once part of a medieval castle complex? At sunset, as the city bathes in golden light, you can see the silhouettes of surrounding buildings and imagine generations before you taking in this same view. It's the perfect time to pause and feel the connection between past and present.
