The observation tower on Schleifenberg is 30 meters high. Those who manage to climb to the top (after paying the entrance fee) enjoy a magnificent view of the Liestal valley and far beyond. At the foot of the tower lies the Turmwirtschaft (Tower Inn). Its hosts are around ten groups of innkeepers who bring the inn to life every Sunday and public holiday throughout the year. They cook and serve for their guests out of sheer joy in working together.

Rheinfelden train station since 1875 In 1875, Rheinfelden was connected to the Bözberg line, after a train station had already been opened on the Baden side of the Rhine on the Basel-Säckingen line in 1856. The discovery of salt deposits was economically significant. From 1844, the Rheinfelden saltworks, which was closed in 1942, and the Riburg saltworks, which has been in operation since 1848, extracted brine for further processing. Brine has been used for medicinal purposes since 1846, and Rheinfelden developed into a salt spa resort. In addition, chemical companies that use brine as a raw material settled in Rheinfelden at the end of the 20th century. The Salmen brewery (closed in 2002) was founded in 1799 and the Feldschlösschen brewery in 1876. The latter is now the largest brewery in Switzerland and an important employer in the region. In 1873, the concession was granted for the Rheinfelden power plant, which was completed in 1898 as the largest river power plant and the first low-water power plant in the world. The plant has been completely renovated since 2003. The Wuhrmann cigar factory, founded in 1876, still produces hand-rolled cigars today. In the second half of the 20th century, Rheinfelden developed into an agglomeration municipality in the Basel region, whose residents also worked in the surrounding commercial and industrial zones. New residential areas were built around the city, including the Augarten settlement (from 1973), which is accessible via the A3 and has been connected to the Basel S-Bahn network with its own train station since 2008.

Unfortunately, there is not much going on at the station itself apart from the snack bar and Avec.

The Schleifenberg Tower is an observation tower in the municipality of Liestal in the canton of Basel-Landschaft. The current steel framework tower was built in 1900 by the Liestal Transport and Beautification Association to replace the previous wooden tower (built in 1891). Renovation work was carried out on the tower in 1932, 1985 and 2007. Maintenance is ensured by the Liestal Tourism Association, which is also responsible for the tower restaurant. When a team of hosts opens the tower restaurant, this is traditionally signaled by the flag hoisted on the top of the tower; otherwise no flag is visible. Access is via a turnstile with cash payment by inserting coins. With an entrance fee of CHF 0.50, you can climb 150 steps to the observation platform at a height of 28.5 meters. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schleifenbergturm

The climb (fee required) can be used at any time. The restaurant is only open on Sundays and public holidays.
