Construction work on the Olympiaturm at a height of about 100 meters, 1965
Olympiaturm
Contrary to most of Olympiapark’s buildings, Olympiaturm was not built with regard to the Olympic Games as construction was finished in 1968. Besides various technical equipment within the 290 meters of Olympiaturm, a turning restaurant can be found spinning around 360° in about 53 minutes. Getting up to the visitors platform in 158 meters height takes 30 seconds by using the elevator. During special events it is also possible to take the 1,230 stairs.
