    Brick tower from 1902. It was built in honour of Otto von Bismarck, who united the German states. In total, about 240 such towers were built. They were observation towers and the tower standing at the highest point in the vicinity of Zielona Góra had such a purpose. In good weather conditions, you could see Głogów, about 60 km away, from it. Today, it is no longer an observation tower. It has been closed and is only used as a fire observation tower. The medallion with Bismarck's head and his coat of arms located on the tower wall replaced the emblem of the State Forests, and the name "Bismarck Tower" was changed to "Wilkanow Tower"
