The structure was erected in the middle of the 15th century for purely practical purposes - monitoring the approaches to the city, determining the place of the outbreak of a fire, etc. Moreover, members of the Innsbruck government worked in the premises inside the tower. The reconstruction of the building was carried out in the 70s. XX century. There is an observation deck at the top, where a staircase of 150 steps leads.
