About Weißer Turm (Darmstadt)

Towers, Architecture, Interesting Places, Other Towers

Der Weiße Turm ist ein ehemaliger Eckturm der mittelalterlichen Stadtbefestigung und ein Wahrzeichen der Stadt Darmstadt. Er wurde als Wehrturm erbaut. Nachdem die Stadtmauer ihren Wert zur Verteidigung der Stadt verloren hatte, wurde der Turm im Jahre 1704 als Glockenturm umgestaltet und erhielt weitgehend sein heutiges Aussehen. Er wurde bei einem Luftangriff vom 11. September 1944 weitgehend zerstört und seit dem Jahr 1949 aus den Ruinen wieder aufgebaut. Zurzeit wird er von einem Freundeskreis betreut, der regelmäßige Führungen anbietet. Seit 1997 dient er auch als Galerie.
