The Leaning Observation Tower of Bamberg

The leaning tower offers an unusual panoramic view of Bamberg’s market gardeners’ district

Located in the meadows of  Böhmerwiese nursery in Heiliggrabstraße this tower was erected when Bamberg hosted the Bavarian Horticultural Show in 2012 and now belongs to the UNESCO model project “Urban Gardening”. From here you can survey the special historic structure of the market gardeners’ district, as you get a view of the large cultivation areas, normally blocked from view by the built-up area surrounding these plots of land.
