Hiking

The tower served as the keep of Redwitz Castle, which was first mentioned in 1251. At least the lower part of its walls is part of the original building from the 14th century. The "Lug ins Land" is the oldest secular building in the city. The complex was the seat of the von Redwitz family and was probably used to secure the roads. As with most medieval keeps, the original entrance was halfway up the tower. Some Romanesque spolia have been preserved in the masonry. The St. Bartholomew's Church was built directly onto the old tower.
