There is not much documentation about the early days of this tower. It must have been built around 1000 and was used as a refuge fort. In 1323 the whole village burned down and the tower was also partially destroyed. The base was reconstructed and in 1627 a new floor with the clock was added. The building was renovated in 1972.
