Fernsehturm Stuttgart

Fernsehturm Stuttgart is a viewpoint in Stuttgart, a quieter pick. When the SWR Television Tower opened in Stuttgart in 1956, it stood out in more ways than one: it was the first television tower in the world to be built of reinforced concrete, it represented a new type of structure as the first broadcasting tower to have an observation platform and a restaurant, and it was one of the highest buildings worldwide, with a height of 217 metres. It is state capital's most prominent landmark, firmly anchored not only in the cityscape but also in the hearts of Stuttgart's inhabitants. The observation decks at a height of 150 m and 153 m offer a unique, 360° panoram visitor rating 4.3/5 (36 reviews).
