Bismarck Tower, Observation tower in Salzgitter-Bad, Germany.

The 17-meter tall tower combines a brick foundation with an upper metal lattice structure resembling the design elements of the Eiffel Tower.

The Harz Club initiated the tower's construction in May 1899, and the project reached completion on August 12, 1900, under the supervision of local firms.

This monument belongs to a network of 240 towers built across Germany between 1869 and 1934 to honor Chancellor Otto von Bismarck's legacy.

The tower's location on Irenenstraße provides visitors access to panoramic views of Salzgitter and the surrounding Lower Saxony landscape.

Unlike traditional stone Bismarck towers, this structure features an industrial design with a distinctive bow element connecting its base supports.
