The 12th stage of the Panoramaweg: In 1901 the tower was built on behalf of the Karlsruhe student body at the Technical University in honor of the Reich Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, who ruled from 1871 to 1890.

At that time - around the time of the transition from the 19th to the 20th century - there was lively interest in many places in Germany in honoring the Chancellor OTTO von BISMARCK (* 1815 to + 1898, the first Chancellor of the German Empire from 1871, previously Prime Minister of Prussia and Chancellor of the North German Confederation) with a monument. But only in very few cases was a statue made of him as a person and erected. Sometimes they were pyramid-like structures, but often - as here - real observation towers were built and named after Bismarck.
