From here, you can see the Kautenturm tower on the Saar. The city tower closed off the medieval city fortifications on the Saar side and served as a customs tower and icebreaker. In the Middle Ages, the Saar served as a trade route between Saarbrücken and Trier. Upstream, the ships were towed, i.e. pulled by people or animals from the towpath.
