Beschreibung
The watchtower was built in 1422 as protection against the Counts of Zollern at the time of the town wars, when the County of Hohenberg was pledged to a consortium of 19 Swabian imperial towns. Next to the Schütteturm tower is the Ottilienkapelle chapel, built around 1431, which was visited by many eye sufferers as a place of pilgrimage.
In 1900, it was renovated as an observation tower by three Horber associations.
