There is a viewing platform at the top of the 13 meter high Bismarck Tower. The spectacular view of the Weser Valley is your reward for climbing out of the valley.

A nice tour on the Weser! We recommend! Attention ⚠️ Navigation to the parking lot is not so plump! Enter "to the train station" via navigation system, otherwise you will not get to the parking lot at the Bismarck Tower!!!
