- | The South Tower was built in 1318. About 1/3 of the way up you can see a door hidden in the shadows, that is the top of the dungeon pit where they threw prisoners. One such prisoner was Fritz Erbe, an early Anabaptist who was imprisoned from 1540 until his death in 1548, for refusing to baptize his children as infants. The Anabaptists, who believed in adult baptism, gave rise to the Amish and Mennonites. Interestingly, we have an Erbe in our Ungerecht family tree, but we're probably not related to Fritz. | + | The South Tower was built in 1318.
