Reichenturm, Inclined tower in Bautzen, Germany

The Reichenturm stands at 56 meters tall, featuring medieval architectural elements and providing extensive views of the surrounding Bautzen landscape.

Construction of the Reichenturm began in 1490 under architect Johann Christoph von Naumann as part of the fortification system protecting medieval Bautzen.

The tower holds regular exhibitions about regional history and maintains a collection of artifacts illustrating the development of Bautzen through centuries.

Visitors can access the tower daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, with guided tours available in German and English through the Bautzen Tourist Office.

The tower's noticeable lean makes it one of several tilted structures in Germany, contributing to its recognition as a cultural heritage monument.
