Metzgerturm, Inclined tower in Ulm
The Metzgerturm is an iconic medieval structure part of the city's fortifications.
Originally built in the 14th century, it served as a defensive and observation tower.
Its name, translating to 'Butchers' Tower,' derives from its proximity to the city's butchers' district.
Today, it stands as a symbol of Ulm's history, easily visible to tourists exploring the city.
Notoriously leaning, the Metzgerturm rivals the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa in its angle of inclination.
