    Unfortunately, there is not much left of the ship. The roof collapsed in the 1940s. What is impressive, of course, is the tower with an inclination of 4.7%, it is on the verge of falling into disrepair. Supports prevent this

      The Leaning Tower of Bad Frankenhausen
      The now famous leaning tower of the upper church in Bad Frankenhausen is located about 70 m to the southwest. It is currently about 4.60 m out of alignment (angle of inclination about 4.7°) and is therefore significantly more crooked than the Leaning Tower of Pisa (angle of inclination 4.0°). Only the 27-meter-high church tower in Suurhusen (East Frisia) is more crooked worldwide, with its angle of inclination of about 5.2° and its inclination of about 2.5 m.
      As of: March 2016

          You can't get to Pisa by bike

            A very well-kept and beautiful place in a great location. It's worth a visit.
