Bahnorama, Wooden architectural tower in Vienna, Austria.

The Bahnorama tower reaches a height of 6.67 meters with two glass panoramic elevators leading to an observation platform at 40 meters.

The Bahnorama tower, constructed with 160 cubic meters of wood weighing 135 tons, opened its doors to the public on August 19, 2010.

The structure drew inspiration from the 1935 hertzian tower in Gliwice, Poland, representing a connection between historical and modern architectural designs.

The base of the structure spans 8 by 7 meters, gradually narrowing to 20 by 20 centimeters at its peak, requiring 1600 hours of assembly.

The tower served as a temporary installation for five years until 2016, marking the development phases of Vienna's new central station project.
