Carl GriffinJanuary 1, 2016One of few remaining parts of the 8km wall that surrounded the city. This 14th century gatehouse tower was preserved as a military prison.
Alexandra KalmikovaDecember 26, 2021Costs 10 euros, but totally worth it. You can go around the wall on the roof and the view is amazing.
