Lubwartturm, Medieval watchtower in Bad Liebenwerda, Germany.
The Lubwartturm stands 31.5 meters tall with a rectangular base made of natural stones extracted from the Rothstein quarry north of Bad Liebenwerda.
Built around 1207, the tower remained the last standing structure among six similar fortifications constructed along the Black Elster River within decades.
The tower's name derives from local dialect variations of Liebenwerda, reflecting the regional linguistic heritage of Brandenburg through centuries of continuous use.
Visitors can climb 122 steps to reach the observation level, with entrance keys available at the adjacent Puppet Theater Museum for 2 euros.
The 2010 renovation works revealed original Renaissance plaster beneath layers of historical construction materials, adding archaeological value to the structure.
