The 60m-high tower, from which trumpeters would warn of fire, mark the hour and watch for salespeople trying to smuggle in non-Sopron wine, is a true architectural hybrid. The 2m-thick square base, built on a Roman gate, dates from the 12th century, the cylindrical middle and arcaded balcony from the 16th century, while the baroque spire was added in 1681. A narrow spiral staircase of 116 steps leads to the summit, where you get an all-encompassing view of the hills and the Inner Town.
A combined ticket with the the Storno Collection and the Boundless Story exhibition costs 2500/1250Ft.
