Stadtturm, Medieval watchtower in Weimar, Germany
The Stadtturm reaches a height of 40 meters and features a square base with thick stone walls and multiple levels rising into the city skyline.
Built during the 13th century, this tower formed an essential part of Weimar's defense system, allowing guards to monitor approaching threats to the settlement.
The Stadtturm represents medieval architectural techniques through its construction methods, including the use of local stone and traditional craftsmanship from that period.
Visitors can access the tower during daylight hours and climb to the observation platform, which provides views across Weimar's historical district.
The interior of the tower contains original wooden beams and stone staircases that have remained largely unchanged since medieval times.
