Lauingen (Danube): Schimmelturm

Highlight • Monument

The Schimmelturm (Mold Tower) was built between 1457 and 1478. Commissioned by Councilor Georg Imhof, the tower was intended to serve as a watchtower, providing a better overview of the surrounding countryside, while also representing the civic pride of Lauingen. The tower, freestanding on two sides, has nine square and two octagonal stories and a three-story lantern topped with a Welsche (Italianate) dome. It stands approximately 54 meters tall. Roman ashlar blocks from the Faimingen fort were used in the construction of the foundations and the ground floor.

Schimmelturm, Lauingen

Highlight • Monument

With its 54 meters it cannot be overlooked. Whoever wants to go up pays an entrance fee of two euros. The door is locked. You can get the key in the town hall or in the Hotel Lodner. Here you also pay the entrance fee. From above you have a great view of the region.
