Guided Story

Look up and imagine the stories this tower could tell. Once, watchmen stood here, keeping an eye on the city below. To your left, you can spot the Museum Harbor. It's peaceful now, but once it was bustling with sailing ships. Behind you in the distance, the tall spire of St. Mary's Church rises. People back then cherished this view just like we do, especially as the sun sets and bathes everything in a warm glow. Take a moment to soak it all in.
