Bismarck tower

The Bismarck Tower is located in Kassel, 214 meters above sea level. The 19.4-meter-high tower is made of Unna medieval city wall blocks and Ruhr sandstone. It also served as a watchtower for the city and contained a fire basket at the top, as the tower was used in emergency situations due to its height. Today, the tower has turned into an archaeological tourist attraction that brings visitors from everywhere to see its traditional architecture, and to see Kassel from a great height.
