The tower:
The Kastelruther Tower, the most powerful landmark of Kastelruth, was built from 1756 to 1758 according to plans by Simon Rieder. The tower is open for inspection once a week, and offers from the top a giant wide view over the wonderfully situated village. For further information, please visit the Parish Church of Kastelruth.
