Viewing Tower
The viewing tower of the New Town Hall is the highest town hall tower in our country. The observation terrace is located at a height of 73 meters and the total height of the tower is 85.6 meters. The view from the terrace can be truly breathtaking. You can admire (enjoy?) the panorama of the Moravian-Silesian and Těšín Beskydy Mountains, the Moravian Gate, Oderské Vrchy and even Poland. If there is a good visibility you can also see the Hrubý Jeseník massif with the highest peak of Moravia - Praděd, as well as the peaks of Malá Fatra. Binoculars, which can bring the beauties of Ostrava and its surroundings closer to you are available for free. The viewing tower is opened daily.
The tower can be easily reached by lift. It is, therefore, one of the few viewing towers that is barrier-free. The marked barrier-free entrance is located on the right side of the main entrance of the building.
