Built in 1913, registered as one of the National Register of Historic Places in 1997, the Witch’s Hat was erected on the highest natural land area in Minneapolis, intended to increase water pressure in the neighborhood to fight fires which were more common back then. Rumor has it that Bob Dylan’s All Along the Watchtower was based on this tower. After visiting a nearby brewery and a restaurant, it might be worth strolling around the park and this serene neighborhood.

This is just an ordinary water tower. The door is locked and you can't get up, so I don't recommend it to everyone. If the water tower door is unlocked and you can go up, it's quite worth it. Because the water tower is built on the top of a hill, if you can climb to the top of the tower, you can see a good view.

I love this place, such a gret view of Minneapolis, and just some minutes away from campus, is a quiet and nice place to take some pictures and to relax! I recommend getting there and maybe having a picnic or your MATE/TERERE with you!

It’s a really cool place to watch the sunset as you can get an amazing view of the Minneapolis skyline. Also you can get to see the castle and enjoy the park.

I saw the tower from a distance and walked to the park. Wonderful view of Minneapolis! Nice quiet place to stretch your legs and enjoy the fresh air.

The "Witches Tower" is a neat structure to check out once. Not much going on here. The door to the tower is locked so you can't go inside.
