The town tower, also known as the market tower and fish tower, is the landmark of the Lower Austrian town of Fischamend and was built in the Middle Ages. After a fire in 1834, it was renovated and largely retained its current appearance. Until 1927, the almost 31-meter-high tower served as a community hall and night watchman's apartment and has been used as a local museum since then. WIKIPEDIA
