White Tower, Pößneck

Highlight • Monument

The White Tower, one of Pößneck's landmarks, was built in 1453. The youngest of the four corner towers of the old city fortifications is the only one still completely preserved. It is 30.30 m high and has a diameter of 7 m. The lowest of the three floors once served as a dungeon where serious criminals had to spend the days before their execution. The name "White Tower" derives from the white lime plaster. In the Middle Ages, the tower was referred to simply as the "Tower" or "Upper Tower." Since 1994, it has been used as an observation tower. The key for independent climbing is available at the Tourist Information Office.
