Messeturm Köln

It is crowned by the sculpture Hermes-Gesichter[2] (German for Faces of Hermes) by Hans Wissel [de], professor for sculpture and plastic arts at the Kölner Werkschulen.

Faced with brick the finish of the buildings looks similar, but they were not built together.

The building of the tower was started in 1927 and it opened with a fair on May 12, 1928.

Tower and halls were built on the banks of river Rhine in the borough Köln-Deutz just opposite Cologne Cathedral.
