Bismarck tower in Sobótka, Stone observation tower in Sobótka, Poland.

The 15-meter high tower contains 60 steps leading to an observation deck offering views over the Lower Silesian Voivodeship landscape and Ślęża Mountain range.

The tower's foundation stone was placed on April 1, 1914, during Bismarck's centenary celebrations, with the inauguration delayed until 1922 due to World War I.

The tower represents one of many structures built across German territories and neighboring regions to honor Otto von Bismarck, the first Chancellor of Germany.

Visitors can access the tower every first Sunday of the month from 14:00 to 16:00, with additional visits possible through advance arrangements.

The structure incorporates local stone materials from the region and stands at 415 meters above sea level on the Wieżyca elevation.
