Hiking

As a direct access to the Main and as a customs station were Zollturm or the associated customs gate for a long time of particular importance. Today the city tower houses the highest history club.

Hiking

The customs tower with the customs gate is part of the Höchst city fortifications and its basic structure dates from the middle of the 14th century; according to a dendrochronological report, its completion is before 1360. Like the neighboring house Der Karpfen, the customs tower was badly damaged in the Thirty Years War and in 1664 rebuilt. The eye-catching timber frame construction on the north side of the customs gate is a supporting device on which the building rests.
