Wedding Tower
The Hochzeitsturm (Wedding Tower), with its famous five fingers profile, was a wedding present from the city of Darmstadt to Grand Duke Ernst Ludwig and Princess Eleonore von Solms-Hohensolms-Lich in 1905. It is a viewing platform and, since 1993, also a branch of the Darmstadt registry office. It has become a symbol of the Darmstadt City of Science.
The observation deck offers a panoramic view of the city.
The Wedding Tower has an elevator, which can be reached via a few steps.
Model of the Wedding Tower:
A touching model of the Wedding Tower can be found in front of the tower at the staircase in the plane grove.

On wedding days, access to the Wedding Tower is restricted. For the exact opening hours on these days, please call 06151 / 701 90 87.
