Shotfactory

This old tower was used to make shots to guns. Factory was used from 1859 to 1972.
Nowdays it is just standing there and probably the second most famous sight of Tampere, FInland. (After Näsinneula naturally).

A fine photo. I would NOT like to climb all those steps!

Nice shot! There is a shot tower like this in Auckland, too, closed around the same time:
