The Zytgloggetrum is one of two remaining city gates. Along with the old wooden bridge and the imposing Salt House, it is one of the town's landmarks.

Here you'll find a lovely, shady picnic area on the lakeshore. Small boats can also be rented for a trip on the lake in the summer. Children who aren't tired from cycling can continue to have fun on the playground.
