Stadtmitte

Behind its pink façade, this historic civic building conceals treasures, from Hanseatic murals to a medieval restaurant and a secret snake statue bringing good luck.

Once an essential part of the city’s fortifications, this tower is now best known for its brick Gothic architecture and the local history group that meets inside.
