Sjömanstornet (The Mariner Tower) is situated at the Maritime Museum, just next to Stigbergstorget. The tower was built in memory of deceased marines of the First World War. The inscriptions of their names and the ships they served on are at the foot of the tower. The tower was inaugurated in 1933. It is 49 metres tall and reaches to 63 metres over sea level. There is no lift, so you have to walk up 139 steps. At the top of the tower stands the five-metre statue Kvinna vid havet ("Woman by the Sea"). To get here, take trams 3, 4 or 9 to Stigbergstorget.
