About
Michael's Tower is the only one of the Old Town's four medieval gates still standing, and it is more than seven centuries old.
Since a 2021-2023 restoration, the tower itself is the exhibit. Kids climb floor by floor from its oldest section upward, through the story of its bells, tower clock, onion-shaped roof and Archangel Michael statue with its time capsule, to the view at the top.
