Kriegsbergturm Stuttgart

The Kriegsberg Tower, just under 10 meters tall, rises from a knoll on the Azenberg in Stuttgart's Relenberg district. Built of sandstone masonry, the structure was erected in 1895 by building councilor Carl Weigle for the Stuttgart Beautification Society and designed in the style of a Romanesque castle fragment. Visitors will find an observation platform with a crenellated parapet as well as an open hall. From here, you get a sweeping view of downtown Stuttgart, the Schurwald forest, and the Rems and Neckar valleys. The tower, which was restored in the 1990s and most recently from 2017 to 2018, is open to the public only on special occasions.
