Culture and sights

The main attraction is the so-called Leaning Tower of Nevyansk , a watchtower built around 1725–1740 by the Demidov entrepreneurial family who owned the ironworks at that time. The axis of the approximately 57.5 meter high tower deviates from the vertical by 1.85 meters (according to other information 2.20 meters) at the top. The image of the leaning tower can also be seen on the Nevyansk city arms.
