Pulverturm, Medieval powder tower in Templin, Germany.
The Pulverturm features a massive conical spire made of brick and contains shooting slits similar to those found in the Eulenturm.
The structure originated in the early 15th century when builders transformed an existing warehouse into a powder storage facility within the town fortifications.
The tower represents a testament to medieval military architecture and forms an essential component of Templin's protected town wall complex.
Located in the eastern section of Templin's old town near Prenzlauer Tor, the tower stands at coordinates 53°07′11″N and 13°30′14″E.
The tower's stone masonry cone roof demonstrates advanced safety engineering, specifically designed to resist fire due to its gunpowder storage function.
