Gradierwerk Bad Dürrenberg, Graduation tower in Bad Dürrenberg, Germany.

The wooden structure extends for 636 meters in length and reaches 12 meters in height, with brine water flowing through blackthorn branches.

The graduation tower originated in the 19th century as part of the local salt production industry, using evaporation techniques to concentrate mineral salts.

This architectural monument represents traditional German engineering methods and serves as a central element in the region's salt production heritage.

Visitors can walk along designated paths near the tower while inhaling the mineral-enriched air produced by the flowing brine water.

The structure stands as Germany's longest graduation tower, featuring an intricate system of wooden channels that distribute saltwater across blackthorn branches.
