Guided Story

Imagine the first chime of the bells from this tower almost 300 years ago. Look up and admire the stonework that whispers tales of history. To your left, far off, you might catch a glimpse of the Von-Alten-Garten, a green gem in the city's heart. Just behind you, hidden away, is the old 'Hundeloch', once a prison with many a story to tell. Look left and you'll see the St. Martin's Church, giving this tower its name. This moment, with the warm afternoon light bathing the city in gold, is truly the best time to be here. Feel the breeze and imagine generations before you stood here, taking in the same breathtaking view.
