Wieża matematyczna Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego, University tower at Uniwersytecki Square, Wrocław, Poland.
The Mathematical Tower rises from the main building of the University of Wrocław, featuring an observation deck that provides views across the city center.
The tower served as an astronomical observatory from 1791, equipped with telescopes and scientific instruments for creating astronomical tables and conducting meteorological measurements.
The Imperial Staircase guides visitors through the tower to an exhibition of historical astronomical equipment, including ancient sundials and observation instruments.
Access to the Mathematical Tower operates from Monday to Sunday except Tuesdays, with extended hours from May to September and shorter winter hours.
A meridian line made of marble tiles and silk thread was installed in the tower to determine solar noon with precision before World War II.
