I
love
heights
therefore
I
could
not
miss
visiting
this
218
meters
tall
Mannheim
dominant
offering
spectacular
360
degree
views!
Ticketing
office
at
the
base
of
the
tower
was
closed
and
honestly
the
whole
place
looked
abandoned,
however
once
I
got
to
the
elevator
I
paid
the
10
EUR
entrance
fee
with
the
guy
servicing
the
elevator
(actually
I
paid
at
the
restaurant
with
a
card
as
the
gentlemen
accepted
only
cash)!
Once
at
the
platform
I
was
able
to
enjoy
the
view
of
Mannheim
and
its
surroundings.
I
liked
the
fact
the
viewing
platforms
windows
were
at
an
angle,
therefore
when
I
leaned
over
the
railing
I
was
able
to
see
directly
underneath
me,
which
got
me
excited
and
frankly
was
more
interesting
than
watching
the
horizon
and
the
cities
in
the
proximity.
There
were
explanatory
boards
on
the
ledges
giving
basic
descriptions
about
what
can
be
seen
from
up
here!
Views
were
great,
not
blocked
by
any
buildings
or
mountains.
I
was
a
little
disappointed
with
the
tinted
window
glass,
which
gave
a
kinda
green-ish
vibe,
not
exactly
the
most
flattering.
Originally
I
was
not
planning
to
visit
the
restaurant
at
all
but
since
I
had
to
go
there
and
pay
anyway,
I
settled
in
for
a
beer.
The
restaurant's
platform
revolves
around
its
axis
once
per
hour
and
I
surprised
myself
to
stay
nearly
for
a
full
round.
Names
of
the
nearby
cities
and
important
sites
were
written
on
each
column,
making
sure
I
won’t
miss
anything
-
a
very
clever
idea!
Restaurant
was
half
empty
during
the
time
of
my
visit,
therefore
the
service
was
quick.
Nice
and
friendly
waiter
Tobias
gave
me
additional
information
about
Mannheim
which
was
appreciated.
The
overall
atmosphere
was
nice,
quiet
and
enjoyable.
Large
selection
of
drinks
and
fair
prices!
Next
time
I
would
skip
the
observation
platform
and
come
straight
to
the
restaurant
(still
you’d
have
to
pay
the
entrance
fee).
Visited
in
June
2022.
