Friedberger Warte, Medieval watchtower in Frankfurt, Germany

The Friedberger Warte contains a rectangular courtyard measuring 22 by 28 meters, with a guardhouse on the western side and a defense tower.

Built in 1478 on the site of an earlier watchtower from 1350, the structure served as the final watchtower of Frankfurt's Landwehr at Eulenberg.

Since 1815, the building functions as a traditional German restaurant serving local specialties, including beer and apple wine in its historic setting.

The establishment opens Wednesday through Saturday from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM, and Sundays from noon to 10:00 PM, with capacity for 200 guests.

The tower underwent modifications in 2012 when the surrounding traffic circle transformed into a multifunctional square with integrated tram lines.
