In the past, the viewing platform actually provided a view of the city. From up here it was also possible to toboggan down to the street in winter. Now everything is overgrown. But maybe it will be again.

A tower only about 4 meters high, which used to be used as a viewing platform. Nowadays you can only enjoy this view to a limited extent.
The front entrance was bricked up for security reasons.
Incidentally, directly above it is the sandstone-carved owl, the bird of the Greek goddess Athena, is a symbol for science. A reference to the university.

It is reported that Merkel and his family members moved up to the Owl Tower on New Year's Eve. A “Feuerzangenbowle” was prepared there and the last glass was emptied from the glistening valley at midnight with the bell ringing. Merkel introduced the beautiful custom of ringing bells on New Year's Eve in Göttingen.

Unfortunately, the tower is very dirty at the moment, there seems to have been a barbecue party, too bad!
