Biotürme Lauchhammer, Industrial heritage monument in Lauchhammer, Germany.

The Biotürme complex consists of 24 cylindrical towers reaching 22 meters in height, constructed from concrete with embedded filtration systems.

Built in 1957 on the grounds of a former lignite coking plant, these towers processed phenol-containing wastewater through blast furnace slag until 2002.

The towers, designated as monuments in 1996, represent the industrial transformation of Brandenburg and form part of the European Route of Industrial Heritage.

Visitors can climb one of the towers to access two glass observation decks that provide views across the former industrial grounds.

The facility now houses exhibition spaces and a concert theater hall, transforming the industrial complex into a center for cultural events.
