The Deity Tower was built in 1596 in Ming Dynasty. It is not only a particular watch tower, but a well-designed ancient architecture. Instead of being built on the city wall, it is hung on the outer side of the wall, making it the only one of its kind along the Great Wall. The Deity Tower is more than 33 meters tall, designed in masonry structure with a flush gable roof. Since it’s built on scarcements, the direction of the whole building aligns with the Great Wall. An arch-shaped door is gouged facing the city wall, which is 2.1 meters long, 1.7 meters wide. The door has frames around it and bolts on both sides. A stone plaque, which is 1.04 meters long and 0.35 meters high, is embedded atop the door, with the characters “Shen Wei Lou” (Chinese characters of Deity Tower) inscribed on it. At the upper left corner it writes “by Zhang Shizhong, General of Guerrillas”, and at the lower right corner it writes “at the propitious moment in the summer of 1596, Wanli Reign”.

In order to defend against enemies, Ming emperors built batteries on the Great Wall along the ridge. Those batteries were used as fortresses along the defense line and equipped with large-caliber cannons to provide fire support. There were three kinds of cannons that were famous in Ming Dynasty: the Breech-loading Swivel Gun, the Crouching Tiger Trebuchet, and the Red Barbarian Cannon. The most famous one, the Red Barbarian Cannon, can have a shooting range of 2 to 4 kilometers. The shells were solid, and therefore devastating enough to kill infantries and penetrate the city wall. The batteries and cannons were important forces in the attack and defense on the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty.
