By the way, you can print the Detail plan as well as the Location plan.

Up the tower

This is now really easy: After you have purchased your ticket at the kiosk or through the Internet and your ticket number appears on the indicator board in green, you pass through the turnstile, swiftly go through the safety check and then you make your way directly to the elevator. This will bring you up to the observation platform in approx. 40 seconds, in which the Bar is also situated. 21 steps higher and you will reach the Restaurant, which rotates on its axis once every 30 minutes or 60 minutes and thus provides you with a ‘sightseeing tour’ of the most extraordinary kind. We would strongly recommend you make a table reservation, because otherwise you could have to wait for some time for a table.
