Maiden Tower (Szczecin)

The Maiden Tower (Baszta Panieńska, Frauenturm), also known as the Tower of Seven Coats (Baszta Siedmiu Płaszczy, Siebenmantelturm), is a historic Gothic defensive tower in Szczecin, Poland. It is located at 47 Panieńska Street in the administrative neighbourhood of the Old Town. It was constructed in the 15th century, sometime before 1462, as part of the city fortifications. It was decommissioned in the 18th century, and partially deconstructed at the turn of 20th century. Its base was used to construct a tenement, which was ultimately destroyed in 1944, while the tower was reconstructed and restored between 1961 and 1964.
