Description

Built entirely of wood in 1931, the tower was named after the Frankfurt poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. In 2017, it was completely destroyed by arson and rebuilt in the following years. The reconstruction was carried out, also at the request of the citizens of Frankfurt, as true to the original as possible.
