Römerturm, Medieval tower in Regensburg, Germany.

The Römerturm reaches 28 meters high with a square base of 14 meters on each side, featuring thick stone walls and multiple floors.

Built between 1250 and 1299, the tower served as part of the ducal palace complex and incorporated stones from earlier Roman fortifications.

The tower belongs to a collection of noble family towers in Regensburg that demonstrated social status and power during the medieval period.

Visitors can locate the tower at Watmarkt 4, where it stands as a prominent structure within the medieval city center of Regensburg.

During World War II, reinforced concrete floors were installed inside the tower to protect valuable stained glass windows from Regensburg Cathedral.
