Wusterhausener Bär, Historical tower in Köllnischer Park, Berlin, Germany.
The Wusterhausener Bär is a brick tower with sandstone details standing in Köllnischer Park in Berlin's Mitte district. The structure displays heavy masonry and stone surfaces typical of early 18th-century construction techniques.
The tower was first built in 1718 at a different location serving as a fortification element for the city. It was dismantled and relocated to its current spot in the park in 1893, where it has remained as a testament to Berlin's older architectural heritage.
The structure, registered in Berlin's cultural heritage database with number 09035413, represents early 18th-century architectural practices in the region.
The tower stands openly accessible in Köllnischer Park and can be reached from several park entrances. The location is central in the Mitte district with good public transportation connections nearby.
The stone inscription bears the date 1718 and a reference to its original location. These carved details preserve the story of its relocation like a history book written in stone.
