Bismarck Tower, Memorial tower in Sargenroth, Germany.
The stone monument rises 17.5 meters high and features an iron stairway leading to a panoramic platform overlooking the Rhine River and Taunus Mountains.
The construction of this architectural structure took place between 1907 and 1912 under the guidance of Wilhelm Kreis to honor Otto von Bismarck, Germany's first chancellor.
The tower represents one of 234 monuments built across Germany as part of a nationwide movement to commemorate Chancellor Bismarck's role in German unification.
Visitors can access the tower from February through September, with extended hours during summer months from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM.
During the pre-Christmas season, the tower transforms into a large Advent candle, illuminating the Rheingau region throughout evening hours.
