Guided Story

Feel the breeze up here? Look up! The towering Siemens Tower reaches 61 meters into the sky. It's a striking example of post-war modernism, when people were eager to look to the future. Did you know it was originally built as an office for Siemens? Just behind you, a short walk away, is Rudolf-Hilferding-Platz, a popular spot for locals to gather. And over there to the west, the Contrescarpe Center, another testament to how the city has evolved since the 60s.
