Kaiser-Wilhelm-Tower, Observation tower in Bad Schmiedeberg, Germany.

The Kaiser-Wilhelm-Tower reaches a height of 30 meters and features a square base leading to an octagonal structure with a copper-covered dome.

The tower, constructed between 1908 and 1910, was built to commemorate German Emperor Wilhelm I at a total cost of 19,500 marks from public donations.

The stone structure represents early 20th-century German architectural design and stands as a cultural heritage monument in the Saxony-Anhalt region.

Visitors can reach the tower through a road from Landesstraße L 128 or by taking the natural staircase approaching from the northern side.

The observation deck provides views of notable landmarks including Lutherstadt Wittenberg churches, Castle Hartenfels in Torgau, and the Völkerschlachtdenkmal in Leipzig.
