A method of guiding a steel strip during its passage through a continuous strip treatment plant equipped with a series of treatment stations, wherein the travel direction and/or travel track of the strip can be adjusted as desired and/or the strip is turned over as desired for making it possible to carry out a visual inspection of the strip. The method includes introducing the strip into a strip turning tower and guiding the strip, similar to a vertical looping storage unit, over vertically spaced-apart upper and lower guide rollers in order to twist the strip from roller to roller by a certain angle, such that any desired twisting angle can be adjusted between strip entry and strip exit of the strip turning tower. An arrangement for carrying out the method includes a strip turning tower constructed with a plurality of upper and lower strip guide rollers arranged vertically spaced apart from each other, wherein the rollers are turned in travel direction of the strip from roller to roller in the same direction relative to the strip inlet axis by angle values which add up to 180°, such that the strip is twisted by a partial angle value as it travels through a pair of rollers formed by an upper and a lower roller, and the strip is turned from the bottom side thereof and vice versa when the sum of all twisting angle values is 180°.
