The St. Peter's Tower

Giant Hands and Heavy Metal for the Soul

On this guided tour you will discover the bell tower of St. Peter - floor by floor. On the ringing floor, the tower keeper shows you the lasso that was once used to catch the bell clappers. Continue on to the clock room with its functioning historical tower clockwork. The bell room houses the five bells dating from 1880, and the bell expert demonstrates with his tuning forks how a bell sounds. As a crowning finale, you can enjoy the wonderful panoramic view from the former fire watchman's floor.
