  Entrance to the tower costs only 50 cent and after climbing 100 steps offers a great panorama over the city and the Rhine, as well as an interesting small museum about the tower. There also is a small museum in the upper former “Jugendherberge” but this is closed during weekends. Is the landmark of the city as this tower can be seen from every direction. It is one of the largest medieval towers in Germany: total height 56 meters, 1440-1453 built partly on Roman foundations and is fully preserved: during the Palatine succession war it even withstood in 1689 an inflatable attempt by the French soldiers of Sun King Louis XIV, a witness of this is a hole on the west side of the tower.

  The round tower is one of the main sights in Andernach. It is quite impressive, 56 meters high and with walls of 4 meters thick (at the base). You can climb the tower to the viewing deck at 31 meters for a nominal fee of 0.50 euro. There is a little museum halfway up.

  Runder Turm, es la torre circular símbolo de la preciosa ciudad de Andernach. Es el primer punto de interés turístico de la ciudad, que nos encontramos a nuestra llegada, y se puede decir que no pasa nada desapercibida.Es una torre defensiva, que formaba parte de la muralla de la ciudad, en su esquina noroccidental. Es bastante alta y, desde ella, se contemplan maravillosas vistas de la ciudad y del río.Os aconsejo que os acerquéis hasta ella.

  Impressive to look at, many steps to climb, so disabled person waits below while companions huffs and puffs up the steps, for quite a view over the town and Rhine river.
