    Originally built in the 13th century, the tower was raised to its current height of 52 meters between 1478 and 14801. Over the centuries, the tower has served various purposes, including as a watchtower, prison, and fire alarm.

    Particularly noteworthy is the astronomical clock, installed in 1574. It not only shows the time, but also the phases of the moon, the day of the week, and the current zodiac sign.
