    The "wedding" tower is an important city's landmark, unfortunately not an impressive one. Frankly speaking I wanted to visit this place because it is an UNESCO heritage site, however I was rather disappointed. The tower itself, built in art nouveau style is beautiful - the red brick façade is amazingly contrasting with the unique roof arches made out of copper - but there is nothing much to see inside. The observatory deck is located on the 7th floor (accessible by stairs or elevator) and offers unimpressive views of Darmstadt - unimpressive because the city lacks a skyline  and there is no focal point. The decorated rooms (usually used for weddings) are blocked by glass doors therefore not fully accessible. To be honest, the most interesting part of the tower's interior for me is the lobby and its two major mosaic decorations, if you just visit this, you don't even have to pay (otherwise the entrance fee is 3 EUR). The surrounding of the tower is peaceful and nice. During Christmas time, we were able to grab a hot mulled wine in a nearby kiosk and stroll around the orchard and the orthodox church. Definitely not the most spectacular building, but if you are in the area, it's still nice to visit. Toilets available on the 6th floor. Paid by card. Visited in November 2022.

    The most important landmark of Darmstadt. The structure is quite unique. One can buy tickets to to go upto the 7th floor. The views from the top are nice.

    It is a good place to be at. You can see the aerial view of Darmstadt, church, garden and Rhine valley. In wedding tower, you can visit only 2 rooms. Museum is not that great. Rest is very good. Church is majestic. The connectivity from luizenplatz is good. One can go by bus.

    Get a fantastic vantage point over the city without breaking the bank. Climb the stairs, and if you're feeling lazy, you can always take the lift down.

    (Translated by Google) A dream for civil marriages! All guests were enthusiastic about the wedding butler, the registrar and of course the wonderful Art Nouveau ambience. It could hardly be more beautiful????? (Original) Ein Traum für standesamtliche Trauungen! Alle Gäste waren begeistert von der Hochzeitsbutlerin, der Standesbeamtin und natürlich von dem wunderschönen Jugendstilambiente. Schöner geht es kaum?????

    (Translated by Google) Darmstadt's landmark on the beautifully located plane tree grove. It is worth visiting the tower, as is the entire artists' colony. When the weather is nice, a great destination. (Original) Darmstadts Wahrzeichen am schön gelegenen Platanenhain. Der Besuch des Turm lohnt sich, wie auch die gesamte Künstlerkolonie. Bei schönem Wetter ein tolles Ausflugsziel.

    For 3 euros : you'll find doors closed for both ornamented rooms. On the top, a view over Darmstadt which is absolutly not interesting. Except if you want to see all ugly buildings surrounding the unesco area.

  • 4/5 Julio F. 10 months ago on Google • 66 reviews
    Interesting looking tower. The entrance is around 4€ per person. There’s basically three floors or rooms that you can enter. The viewing deck on top, the marriage room in the center and another room. The mosaics in the entrance were the most interesting thing to me. They’re very beautiful.

    Beautiful mix of Victorian and Art Deco architecture & history, epic view at the top!

  • 5/5 Eva 8 months ago on Google • 17 reviews
    An absolute must-see for anyone who likes Art Deco and Art Nouveau. It's not just the Hochzeitsturm, it's the entire Mathildenhöhe that is worth a visit. Don't leave out the museum or the surrounding park. The best way to experience it is with a guided tour.

  • 5/5 Robin T. 1 year ago on Google
    Area was great. Beautiful green area to have some drinks. Wedding tower had a lot of history.

  • 5/5 Peter S. 2 years ago on Google
    Super cool Art Nouveau tower but when I went it seemed like one wedding right after another. I kind of wanted to go inside but wasn't sure if it was possible. Perhaps, plan according to when there aren't any weddings, if that ever happens.

  • 1/5 Jeanne I. 2 years ago on Google
    Didn't meet my expectations. Am amazing building from the outside but nothing to see inside. You see the two paintings when you enter the building to buy your ticket and you go straight to the seventh floor just to see the amazing view of the city though the... windows. Much ado about nothing.

  • 5/5 Lakshya P. 2 years ago on Google
    A UNESCO World Heritage in 2021 with wonderful landscape and artist colony that surrounds the space and adds to it's Jugendstil art history.

  • 5/5 Nick B. 1 year ago on Google

  • 4/5 Ignat T. 1 year ago on Google
    The place is nice but quite overrated for me. 3 euro is just for taking elevator I guess. Strange to see the rooms through the glass door like aquarium

    War sehr schöner Ort. Momentan läuft da grosse Baustelle. Platz ist dreckig, keiner kümmert sich darum. Traurig ?

    (Translated by Google) Were a little disappointed. Great view but that's about it. After 5 - 10 minutes you are out of the tower again. Costs admission. (Original) Waren ein wenig enttäuscht.

    The architecture here and in the surroundings is really beautiful. The tower itself offers great views of Darmstadt, so on a clear day you can see any and all landmarks which might interest you. The proximity to other attractions makes it a good nexus for an afternoon of exploring Darmstadt.
