Schellenturm, Stone observation tower in Oesdorf, Germany.

The Schellenturm stands atop the Schellenberg ridge, providing visitors with extensive views across the Pyrmont Valley and surrounding landscape.

Built in 1824 using materials from the ruins of Burg Schell-Pyrmont castle, the tower marks the site of a medieval fortress dating back to 1184.

The tower represents a significant architectural monument that connects to the regional fortification strategy implemented between the Rhine and Weser rivers.

Multiple hiking trails lead to the tower, which underwent major renovations in 2009 to ensure safe public access and improved viewing conditions.

The structure forms part of a trio of accessible towers in Bad Pyrmont, each offering different perspectives of the Valley of Bubbling Springs.
