Ottosäule, Architectural heritage monument in Bavaria, Germany.
The Ottosäule stands 18.52 meters tall and weighs 87.36 tons, featuring an internal staircase leading to a viewing platform in its upper section.
Commissioned by Ludwig I of Bavaria, this bronze monument required innovative casting techniques and engineering solutions during its 19th-century construction period.
The monument forms part of an ensemble including the Ruhmeshalle, representing the architectural and artistic achievements of Bavaria during its cultural development.
Visitors can reach the observation platform through the internal staircase, which provides views of Theresienwiese and the Munich downtown area.
