Bismarck Tower

Highlight • Monument

The owner of the Sachsenwald-Hofriede villa colony, Emil Specht, initiated the construction of this Bismarck Tower in 1897, during Bismarck's lifetime. Emil Specht had previously acquired the property next to Aumühle Station, the highest elevation in Aumühle (39 m above sea level), from Otto von Bismarck and established a villa colony there.

The structure, conceived as an observation and water tower with a 90 m³ water basin, was designed by architect Hermann Schomburgk from Hamburg. With the 4 m high tower cap on the platform, the structure reached a height of 27 meters.

The 27 m high observation and water tower with its "firing" device is a circular structure with a cantilevered, crenellated platform.

The whitish-gray plaster paint on the plaster simulated ashlar masonry.

The 3 m high, round base of the tower has a diameter of 4.46 m.
The wall diameter in the base area is just under one meter.

The base is capped by a decorative cornice. Above it rises the actual round tower shaft, which tapers slightly towards the top until it reaches the projecting observation platform at a height of approximately 20 m.

Three superimposed round-arched windows on the tower shaft (a twin round-arched window with overhang on the first floor) provide light into the building. Between these two round-arched windows, a 1.50 m high bronze bust of Bismarck was mounted on a protruding, ornamented support stone. It was sculpted by Harro Magnusson and manufactured at the Württemberg Metalware Factory in Geislingen. The bust was a gift from Hamburg's shipowners for Prince Bismarck's 80th birthday. An inscription in gold lettering reading "BISMARCK-TURM" was placed between the windows of the first and second floors.

Kämpenweg

Highlight • Cycleway

Initially straight, easy to drive and asphalted through nature between Brunstorf and Dassendorf. In between there is a short stretch of sand, but you can also drive well.

St. Elisabeth Church Brunstorf

Highlight • Religious Site

The Elisabeth Church in Brunstorf is the oldest in the area. It dates from 1777 and was built on the remains of a previous church. The same size, unhewn field stones that can be seen on the north wall of the church in the lower western part are evidence of this.
The church has a wonderful "starry sky" and also a baptismal angel, which can be lowered thanks to a restoration. So he brings the baptismal bowl "straight from heaven".

Brunstorf Village Pond

Highlight • Lake

The bench by the idyllic village pond invites you to take a break.
Many carp swim in the village pond, which are traditionally caught with a net the day before the day of penance and prayer. Only the big carp over 2 kilos stay outside and are prepared for the big carp meal in Bruhn's Gasthof. The little fish come back into the pond.
