From Wikipedia
The Munot is a circular 16th-century fortification located on Emmersberg hill in the city of Schaffhausen, Switzerland, and serves as a symbol of the city. It is surrounded by vineyards, which have been cultivated since the early 20th century. The structure was built between 1564 and 1589, partly through compulsory labor (Frondienst), and formed part of the city’s defensive fortifications. The site had earlier fortifications, with references to a structure called Annot in 1376 and Unot in 1460. The Munot's circular design strongly reflects the fortress concepts of Albrecht Dürer. Its lower level consists of a hexagonal trench structure with caponiers (defensive turrets), above which are circular casemates and a battlement platform. A projecting tower on the city-facing side rises to a height of around 50 metres.
