It's still standing, the Mole Tower in Bremerhaven.
But his days are finally numbered.
During the night on Thursday, parts of the north mole on which the building stands collapsed - and the 20-meter-high tower got into a crooked position.
The listed navigation mark, which was put into operation in 1914, has been in danger of collapsing for years and should have been renovated.
But the city, state and port operators could not agree on who is responsible.
Now the landmark is to be examined by experts over the weekend, and then it is expected to be removed at the beginning of next week.
Later, after the pier has been renovated, it will be rebuilt in its original form.
Until then, the leaning tower will continue to attract many onlookers - and hopefully it will not tip over after all.
