The tower of the Church of the Redeemer with its unique panorama
INTRODUCTION
The tower of the Church of the Redeemer was built to a design created by Kaiser Wilhelm II. It offers a magnificent panoramic view of the Old Town and much of the New Town. From here you can see the former Jewish Temple Mount, today the Haram esh-Sharif with the Dome of the Rock and the Al Aqsa Mosque. In the other direction you can look to Mount Scopus with the Hebrew University and the Mount of Olives with the Church of the Ascension, the Jewish cemetery and the "Auguste Victoria Compound", which houses the GPIA.
