About this Stone
This place boasts a remarkable collection of medieval towers worthy of exploration. The stone was hidden in one of the smallest among them—a 14th-century structure that once served as a guard tower on the southern wall. What makes it particularly charming is its unconventional history: in the 16th century, it was repurposed as a sauna, a quirk that earned it its distinctive name. Standing at just 15 meters tall, it's an intimate climb compared to its grander neighbors. Visitors can access three connected towers from this spot, each offering views and stories of medieval fortification. Note that reaching the stone requires a bit of height advantage, so younger explorers may need assistance.
