Hello fellow LEGO enthusiasts,

I am thrilled to present to you my LEGO creation, the Tower Corner. Inspired by the magnificent Rouen Clock Tower in France, this design combines historical grandeur with functional and intricate details.

At the heart of the Tower Corner stands a cluster of four main buildings, each meticulously crafted to offer a unique experience. The first building, known as the Ram, boasts a ground floor clock repair shop, where skilled artisans meticulously restore timepieces to their former glory. Above, on the first floor, is a cozy apartment complete with a toilet, bedroom, and a small kitchenette. The second floor houses a historically significant dormitory, serving as part of the Tower's fascinating exhibition.

The centerpiece of the Tower Corner is the historical Tower itself, featuring a pedestrian underpass for easy access. Adorning the facade is an awe-inspiring astronomical clock, capturing the wonder of celestial movements. While the internal mechanism on the first floor is non-functional, it serves as a remarkable display piece. Ascending to the second floor, visitors will be transported to the Duke's throne room, steeped in regal splendor and offering a glimpse into the past.

Standing tall beside the historical Tower is the Clock Tower, a marvel of architectural prowess. With its impressive height of 63.8 cm (25.1 inches) or 79.8 studs, it dominates the skyline. This towering structure boasts seven separate levels, interconnected by a spiral staircase. The fifth level presents four clocks, facing all directions, ensuring that no moment is lost in time.

Completing the Tower Corner is the charming Tower Café, a true tourist trap. Its inviting terrace and external stairs beckon passersby to indulge in refreshments and sweets. Within its walls, visitors will discover cozy seating areas, convenient toilets, and an espresso machine ready to serve aromatic delights. This inclusion adds a touch of realism and relatability to the bustling atmosphere of a historical tourist attraction.

The Tower Corner, with its 32x32 baseplate design, not only serves as a remarkable centerpiece but also fulfills the need for an inverted corner structure in LEGO cities. It effortlessly blends into medieval layouts, seamlessly integrating into diverse architectural landscapes. To further enhance the authenticity, I have included ten mini-figures, including a beggar, a clock repairman, historically dressed tourist guides, a family, a café waiter, and an elderly tourist couple.

The Tower Corner is a fusion of historical inspiration, functional features, and intricate details. I believe this creation will add charm and character (apart from functionality) to any LEGO city or medieval layout.
