The "Obere Tor" (also called Törli) is the landmark of Liestal and the rest of the medieval city fortification. The substructure was built in the first half of the 13th century, the subsequently added barbican had to make way in 1879 for traffic reasons. The tower has probably been painted since 1498/99, the current paintings are by local painter Otto Plattner from the years 1949/50 and show on the inside the Rütli oath and St. George the dragon slayer, on the outside Chronos and a warrior with a Swiss banner.

There are better places to admire the Birs: It's always quite busy and there's heavy traffic here. Therefore, I recommend: Take a look as you drive by and move on.

Susy's farm shop is tucked away unobtrusively by the roadside and can easily be missed. That would be a real shame for your taste buds, because on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays, they're treated to heavenly goodness. They offer bread, sweets, savory snacks, and drinks from the refrigerator. Payment is accepted in cash or with TWINT. A gem that will give you the energy you need for the next leg of your journey!
