The Kassel Tower can also be visited on weekends, and visitors are told the story of the Devil's Foot: According to legend, the devil himself once tried to invade the city. When he reached the tower, he stamped the ground so furiously that an imprint of his foot remained in the stone—the so-called "Devil's Foot."

The charming "herb witch" Ursula Engelwurz offers fascinating insights into the world of medicinal herbs, elixirs and tinctures in the historic Kassel Tower. In the picturesque ambience of the former defense tower, visitors can expect an informative and entertaining tour of Schongau's most original sight - including a magnificent view of the city. Admission is free, and the Kassel Tower is open from May to October, Friday to Sunday.
