About Florida Citrus Tower

The Citrus Tower is a 226-foot observation tower in Clermont, Florida, opened in 1956 so visitors could look out over the surrounding citrus groves. Guests can ride an elevator to the observation deck for wide views of the countryside. The site also includes a coffee shop serving house and premium roasts, and a banquet hall that hosts meetings and weddings. The tower was restored after its later purchase and reopened with a grand re-opening event.
