Kuhhirtenturm (Elefant)

Feel the weight of history in the thick, ancient walls around you. Look up, and you'll see the battlements of the Kuhhirtenturm, a reminder of when Sachsenhausen was fortified against invaders. Across the river, the modern skyline of Frankfurt rises—quite the contrast, isn't it? But there's more to this tower than its medieval past. Did you know that Paul Hindemith, a renowned 20th-century composer, once called this place home? Imagine him crafting his music here, surrounded by these historic stones. And as you move on, don't miss the nearby Deutschordenskirche, another treasure of the past. It's these layers of history that make this spot so intriguing.
