Siegturm

The Siegturm (Victory Tower), formerly known as the Eiffel Tower, is a major architectural landmark in the city of New-Paris, France.

Wolfenstein: The New Order

The Eiffel Tower can be seen in background film reels of Paris, as German soldiers celebrate in the streets of Paris upon the end of World War II, and in the late 1950s where protesting hippies are executed by members of the SS.

Wolfenstein: Youngblood

By 1980, as part of the gradual infrastructural transformations to Paris (now known as New Paris, a constituent city of the Greater German Reich), the ironwork structure of the Eiffel Tower has been fully encased in Uberconcrete, and renamed the Siegturm. It serves as the main command center for the German military and the Gestapo in Neu-Paris and the final mission of the game.

"Siegturm, commissioned by Lothar Brandt in 1960, was built over the Eiffel Tower as a way of establishing the Nazis' superiority over the occupied city. The tower functioned both as a headquarters for the Paris regime and living space for the former General Brandt."

The Siegturm District is one of the Neu-Paris districts that can be explored in Wolfenstein: Youngblood, specifically towards the end of the game. The previous Eiffel Tower was heavily modified, being encased in Überconcrete and having its total size enlarged. The top-secret Lab X was also built under the tower and can also be accessed.

Lab-X

"Lab-X is a mysterious Nazi research area, and a well-kept secret even within the Nazi organization. Rumors whisper of horrible human experiments and grand plans to build massive flying cities."

Lab-X is a large, underground research facility built underneath the Siegturm and the surrounding area. The purpose of the facility is to research Da'at Yichud technology as well as develop black protostars to power Nazi floating-cities as apart of the Fourth Reich's Operation: Ascension to escape Hitler's doomsday weapon. Its shown that even high-ranking Kommandants and Ubercommanders do not know exactly what goes on within the facility, or even if it exists at all.
