"...The city wall of Friedberg was first built from stone in 1409 and had three city gates, none of which still exist. In addition to the wooden battlements, the city fortifications included four round towers at the corners and numerous defensive towers. Many of them still exist today and can be admired, such as the torture tower with its interrogation and torture room or the Red Water Tower, which was in use from 1888-1936. The name of most of the towers is based on the family names or the professions of their former residents: Gunsmith Tower, Bookbinder Tower or Council Servant Tower..."

"...In addition to the Wittelsbach Castle, the St. Jakob Church is also worth seeing. Its predecessor dates back to the 13th century. The church tower was originally much higher (68 meters, to be precise) and had an onion dome. But the medieval foundations could not support it. As a result, the tower collapsed in 1868, damaging the central nave. Fortunately, no one was hurt..."

Next to the church, the Jesuits also built a "soul house" that served as a poorhouse and hospital. A district hospital was later built in the hospital garden. Today, the former hospital houses small, inexpensive rental apartments for needy Friedberg senior citizens..."

"...The town hall of Friedberg in Bavaria is located directly on Marienplatz. It was rebuilt in 1680 after it was destroyed in the Thirty Years' War. Until the 19th century, the town hall also housed the Schranne, where the grain had to be sold. In the past, not all of the grain was allowed to be exported. In front of the Renaissance building is the Marienbrunnen with the Marian column. It was built in gratitude for the deliverance from the plague..."
