The "Schlosserturm" (tower) is located on the street called "Schlosserbuck" and on the central "Taubertorplatz" next to the river Tauber
For a long time it served as the town messenger tower and has a half-timbered structure.
In medieval times, if the tower was captured by enemies, it could be attacked from the nearby towngate. So it was possible to drive out the enemies from inside the tower with medieval weppons (militarily called "blow-out-tower" because the enemies could be blown out)
Today the "Schlosserturm", like the Faulturm" is a beautiful, rentable holiday cottage and offers amazing views over the town.
If you now looking towards the "Hauptstrasse (main road) the townwall was approximately between the "Schlosserturm" on your right and the half-timbered house with the wrought-iron balcony on the oppositesite of the road from the "Sparkasse" (bank)
In 1824 the building of an almshouse (for poor people) the "Dreher-Stift", next to Schlosserturm was important but unfortunatly not standing today.
If you walk approx. 100 meters into "Neue Strasse" you will discover the second tower of the town, the "Faulturm"
