Location: Calden, Landkreis Kassel, Kassel District, Regierungsbezirk Kassel, Hesse, Germany
The building, which was built around 1800, towers majestically above the treetops and castle roofs on the park's hill. The people of Calden like to call it the Rapunzel Tower. The stone creation, designed by the Kassel court architect Simon du Ry, certainly stimulates the imagination of visitors.

The tower was built from the remains of the cascades that were located opposite the castle. The builder's son no longer found the French garden beautiful and had it converted into an English garden. The cascade stairs were also removed.
