Askanierturm, Observation tower in Schorfheide, Germany.
The cylindrical stone tower rises 12 meters high on the southern tip of Lake Werbellin, featuring a balcony and brick parapet design.
Construction of the tower began in 1879 at the site of the former Werbellin Castle, which existed between 1211 and 1215 under Markgraf Albrecht II.
Local poet Friedrich Brunold initiated the tower project, which Prince Carl von Prussia supported and assigned builder Oskar Büschner to create.
Visitors can obtain tower access keys at Café Wildau, located five minutes away by foot, for a fee of 0.50 euros per person.
The tower served as a filming location for the German television production of Rapunzel in 2009, adding to its cultural significance.
