Hiking

For the 700th anniversary of the town charter of Eggenburg in 1977, the artist Ernst Degasperi, born in South Tyrol, gifted his adopted home of Eggenburg the sgraffito inside the so-called Turndl, or today better known as the Tower of Peace - part of the eastern wall of the medieval town fortifications.
