Second Nameless Tower
Second Nameless Tower

The tower was built in the middle of the 15th century. It had purely defensive functions. In 1680 a quadrangular structure and a tall pyramidal tent roof with a watchtower were added to the top of the tower. It is crowned with an eight-sided hipped cupola with a weather vane.
