Sight 4: Jahrtausendturm
Jahrtausendturm is, at 60 metres (200 ft), one of the highest wooden towers in the world. It was established on the occasion of the Bundesgartenschau 1999 in the Magdeburger Elbauenpark in Magdeburg, Germany. The tower houses an exhibition on the development of sciences, which is supported by many descriptive experiments with which the visitor can interact. One notable example is a powerful telescope through which visitors can observe the distant clock-face on the Magdeburger cathedral.
Sight 5: Festung Mark
The Mark Fortress, formerly known as the Mark Barracks, is a former "defensive barracks" of the Magdeburg Fortress. Today it is used as a centre for cultural events in Magdeburg. The building is now a listed building. Due to the few preserved defence barracks in Germany, the Mark Fortress has a supra-regional significance for the history of military construction in the 19th century.
