The Tower Hill The Tower is an Outbound medieval motte (moth), which in the district Berghausen of the Upper Palatinate market Hohenburg in Amberg-Sulzbach of Bavaria lies. It is located on the grounds of the Schargrieshof von Berghausen (house no. 7).
description
On a ridge above the valley there is a truncated pyramid-shaped hill formerly 25 m in diameter. The Schargrieshof is built into this today. Only minor traces of the surrounding ditch have been preserved. The remnant of the hill behind the courtyard is called "the tower".
