Blechburg, Cultural heritage tower in Radebeul, Germany.
The stone tower features an octagonal layout with granite blocks, sandstone windows, and reaches a height of approximately 17 meters.
August Traugott Hantzsch, a wine merchant, commissioned architect Woldemar Hermann to construct this Gothic-style tower in 1844.
The tower became part of Friedrich Eduard Bilz's sanatorium complex in 1895, serving as a destination point for patients and visitors.
The remaining outer walls of the watchtower stand in a forested area, with paths leading through the Oberlößnitz landscape.
In 1944, the Hitler Youth set fire to the structure, leaving only the exterior walls of the protected bay tower standing.
