Gabriel von Seidl provided the designs for the observation tower on the hill at the Kleiner Stadtwaldsee in the Bürgerpark in Bremen and had a tower-like pavilion built with a colonnade, behind the oak door of which a staircase led to the upper platform. From the fall of 1909, the building served as a vantage point and rain shelter, but was immediately closed again until the summer of 1910, as the view of the newly designed park was still considered too unattractive. For reasons that are not known, the term “Jewish Temple” became commonplace soon after its completion.

Built in 1909 based on a design by the Munich architect Prof. Gabriel von Seidl on the hill by the Stadtwaldsee as a tower-like pavilion with a colonnaded perimeter, it serves as a viewing tower and as a rain shelter. Behind the heavy oak door a staircase leads to the upper platform. Since the trees are too high today, no real distant view is possible despite the exposed hill location.
With the help of the “Rotary Club Bremen-Weser” the tower was completely renovated in 2004.

Every time I visit the city park, I definitely have to stop by this little tower. Very nicely located above a lake.
