In earlier times, the towers of the city fortifications had no names; they only received them in the 19th and 20th centuries, long after they had lost their original function as a sentry post. It was mainly the population who came up with simple but appropriate names, such as thieves' storm for the city jail.

Some history (thanks to the good information board) and a great view of the valley.

In the immediate vicinity you can do the "historical city tour", highly recommended because it is instructive, very compact and beautiful.
The views of the city of Wetter from there are very scenic.
A few hundred meters further there are various catering options: ice cream parlour, pizzeria, beer garden and whatever else you need...
