Up here on one of Europe's highest towers, there is no sign of the hustle and bustle of the big city. Take a deep breath, switch off - and then breathe a sigh of relief. From the viewing platforms of the tower at a height of 190 metres, the shiny silhouette of the tent roof of the Olympic Park is a shining example of extraordinary architecture.

The Blue Sky Coffee & Foto coffee bar and Restaurant 181 provide for physical well-being at the top of the tower.

The covered platform is also home to the "Future Platform". The area offers an exhibition on the future of live entertainment and is also used for smaller events such as the Munich Weitblick.

At 291.28 metres high, Munich's most prominent landmark is three times taller than the towers of the Frauenkirche. Since its opening on 22 February 1968, the 52,500-ton giant has defied all Föhn and autumn storms.

Exhibition on the 50th Anniversary of the Start of Construction of the Olympic Tower

In 1965, the foundation stone was laid for the Munich Olympic Tower. You will find:

• A black and white photo exhibition on the construction of the Olympic Tower (1965-1968) on the open platform. We would like to thank the Munich City Archive and Heinz Gebhardt (Münchenfoto) for the great photos!
• Weather phenomena / Olympic Tower. Impressive photos by our photographer Martin Hangen with lightning, fog, rainbow and full moon interacting with the Olympic Tower.
