Olympic Tower (currently closed)

In contrast to most of the buildings in the Olympic Park, the Olympic Tower was not built with the 1972 Olympic Games in mind; it was completed in 1968. The almost 290-meter-high tower houses a restaurant that rotates once on its own axis every 53 minutes. The ride in a visitor lift to the observation deck at a height of 185 meters takes about 30 seconds. Or you can walk the 1,230 steps, which are only accessible during special events. Current note: Due to renovation work, the Olympic Tower is expected to be closed until 2026.
