History

The original tower built with the river bridge in 201 YG provided a base for a handful of armed guards to watch over and defend the town bridge. The original wooden tower was replaced with a stone foundation, when the bridge was dismantled in 229 YG. The lower level provides space for the on duty watch patrols, and cells for detaining criminals awaiting the town's justice. The second floor is a barracks for the guards who are off duty, and the topmost floor a covered overlook to observe the town and its approach from the East.
