"a place in Germany for all Hundertwasser - fans" Top 5 Page for this destination Europe Off The Beaten Path Tip by globetrott

Abensberg is a small town between Regensburg and Ingolstadt in Bavaria / Germany and its most interesting sight might be a tower that was built by the austrian painter Friedensreich Hundertwasser next to a local brewery. The Hundertwasser - Turm / Hundertwasser - tower is only about 35 meters high, although the plans of the architects had been first a tower 70 meters high. But then bureaucacy started to fight against it, because the churchtower was just 50 meters high and so on and so forth...
The only way to step up that tower is by a guided tour through the brewery that ends at the tower and will include also a glass of beer and a Brezel, that you can enjoy in the beergarden right under the tower.
The rest of the town is interesting as well, when you like to see baroque houses and some remains of the medieval townwalls.
