Ferberturm, Television and observation tower in Gera, Germany.

The Ferberturm rises 21 meters above Gera, offering panoramic views across the southern areas of the city from its observation platform.

Dr. Moritz Rudolf Ferber initiated the construction of this stone tower between 1874 and 1875, establishing it as a local landmark in Thuringia.

The tower represents the late 19th-century German architectural movement when citizens actively participated in constructing observation structures across mountainous regions.

Visitors should verify opening hours before their visit as the tower, which includes a restaurant since 1948, occasionally closes for private events.

The structure stands on one of the highest points in Gera, combining telecommunications functionality with dining services and observation opportunities.
