The tower is the only remaining element of a 17th Century castle which was destroyed during the Swedish Deluge and then partially reconstructed. In 1907, Prussian authorities ordered the fortifications and castle ruins to be demolished, leaving only the castle tower with an entrance gate. Today, the tower houses a modern art gallery. In front of the castle tower, there is a reconstructed bascule bridge over the channel leading to the marina in the town centre.
