View from Peace Park towards the Hunger Tower. The tower was probably built in the 15th century. The origin of its name is unclear.

The origin of the name has not been conclusively clarified to this day. This makes it particularly interesting, because unlike other "hunger towers" in Germany, it was not a torture chamber or prison where people were locked up to starve. It was a defensive tower.
