The Tower Hill The temple is an Outbound medieval motte (moth) at the old mill ditch about 150 meters southwest of the church in Marktleuthen in the district of Wunsiedel in Bavaria .
The perhaps high medieval tower hill, the so-called "temple", rose above the former mill ditch and the former floodplain of the Eger . In 1811 a house (now known as the "temple") was built on the tower hill, which survived the great fire of 1843 undamaged and is one of the oldest buildings in Marktleuthen. Until a few years ago the “temple carpenter” lived and worked here.
