The Hölderlinturm with its weeping willow is definitely a landmark of Tübingen. The poet Friedrich Hölderlin once lived here. Together with the Stocherkahn boat landing next to it, the tower is one of Tübingen's most photographed attractions.

The well-known poet Hölderlin lived in Tübingen. There is an inn with the same name right next to the tower.
