The Rottweil Test Tower (TK-Elevator-Testturm) is an elevator test tower in Rottweil, Germany. It is owned by ThyssenKrupp, who have their elevator research campus nearby. It stands 246 metres (807 ft) tall and was built to test the company's MULTI elevator system. The tower was completed in 2017 and was the tallest elevator test tower in the world then,[1][2] as well as the second-largest elevator test chamber after a former mine shaft used by Kone.[3][4]
