    The pentagonal tower, which still stands today, can be dated to around 1150 and, like the other defensive structures, was probably a building task "of the empire" and thus of the king.
    Translated by
    The pentagonal tower originally belonged to the Burggrafenburg, which actually lies outside the Kaiserburg. Apart from the pentagonal tower, the only things that can still be seen of the castle today are the Burgamtmannshaus and the Walburgiskapelle.

    The pentagonal tower is part of the castle complex in Nuremberg. An impressive building and the landmark of the city.
