It was one of six anti aircraft fortresses built on Hitler demand around Vienna. Each set of towers had a firing tower (G) and a guidance tower (L) this is the G Tower in Augarten, the LTower being on the far side of the park. Theres 4 others in Vienna all plonked amidst city streets, one nis used as an art gallery, another as an Aquarium. The others all disused.

Berlin had nine of them, but six were demolished, the others converted to apartment buildings.

The walls at the base are 4m thick and the concrete reportedly took 16 years to fully set.
