Falterturm, Medieval inclined tower in Kitzingen, Germany.
Falterturm is a 52-meter-tall medieval defensive tower with seven stories that was part of Kitzingen's fortification system. It stands where the old city wall once ran and served as a defensive position at the boundary of the inhabited area.
The tower was built in the Middle Ages as part of Kitzingen's fortification system. It has survived for centuries and remained standing at its original location to the present day.
The tower was part of the medieval fortification system that protected the city and marked its boundaries. It shows how residents defended their home during that period.
The tower is located in central Kitzingen and can be reached easily on foot. It sits close to other historic attractions throughout the city.
The tower leans to one side, similar to the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa, making it a notable example of medieval construction. This tilt developed over centuries due to shifting ground beneath the structure.
