Guided Story

Can you feel the gentle breeze rustling through the trees? As you ascend the 15.5 meters of the Kolkturm, imagine the year 1976 when this iron and steel structure was built. Look to your left and you'll spot the expansive Bischofswiese, a green gem amidst nature. Straight ahead, beyond the treetops, you can make out the city of Halle. Picture how people years ago stood here, taking in the same breathtaking view. In the early morning, when mist blankets the heath and the first rays of sun cast a golden glow over everything, the scene feels almost magical.
