    Schmalzturm

    The Market Square is one of the jewels of the city, surrounded by low buildings painted in different colors and with its reddish roofs. It is the most atmospheric place in the city with cafés and restaurants.
    One of the entrances to the square is the so-called lard tower, where in ancient times women traded lard in the shade of the tower, which prevented the lard from melting quickly.
    When you look up you can see the roof that crowns the tower, a mixture of white, green, black and brown colors. Beautiful!
