				History
The tower was built in 1521 and reinforced in 1603. In 1606, the tower, defended by the Guild of the Bootmakers, was partially damaged, but was rebuilt in 1650. It took its present form in 1681, after being rebuilt after the fire of 1676. Located at the northern end of the castle wall, it is the lowest tower of all.
