The 20-meter-high prison tower is part of the medieval city wall and is considered one of the town's landmarks. The tower, which ends with an arched frieze and battlements, was renovated and plastered on the outside in 2004. It is believed that it originally had a wooden roof.

The hut is located on the B6 hiking trail in the municipality of Brechen. On this path, near the hut, there is also an educational trail with several boards that introduce the forest and meadow habitat.
