Bismarck Tower - Miedzyrzecz, Poland - Bismarck Towers on Waymarking.com

[PL]
Miedzyrzecka Wieza Bismarcka powstala w latach 1913-1914 na wznoszacym sie na 77 metrów n.p.m. wzgórzu na poludnie od miasta, w poblizu jeziora Nietopersko. 15,5 metrowy obiekt wybudowano na sztucznie usypanym kopcu, a koszt jej budowy, pokryty przez dobrowolne datki lokalnej spolecznosci, wyniósl okolo 14 tysiecy marek niemieckich.

Wieza przetrwala II wojne swiatowa w dobrym stanie, jednak na przelomie lat 50. i 60. XX wieku zostala wysadzona. Jeszcze do lat 70. zachowal sie jej cokól z lukiem nad wejsciem i czescia schodów, jednak ostatecznie i ta czesc obiektu zostala rozebrana. Do czasów dzisiejszych zachowal sie jedynie kopiec oraz porozrzucane po okolicy kamienne fragmenty dawnej budowli. Czesc kamieni zdobiacych oryginalnie kopiec i poswieconych fundatorom wiezy w 2003 roku zebrano i umieszczono w pobliskiej wsi, Nietoperku.
