The Goetheturm is a 43-meter-high observation tower built entirely of wood on the northern edge of the Frankfurt city forest in Sachsenhausen (a district of Frankfurt am Main). The tower, named after Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, has 196 steps and was the highest publicly accessible wooden structure in Germany until 1999, when it was replaced by the Millennium Tower in Magdeburg. It was completely destroyed by arson on the night of October 12, 2017 and rebuilt true to the original between 2019 and 2020.
