The 17.5 meter high observation tower made of local oak was built on an eye-shaped floor plan, which earned it the nickname “wooden eye”. On the way up there are several viewing platforms. The platform with all-round visibility is 13 meters high and allows a direct view of the treetops. Around 80 oaks, each around 100 years old, were used. They came from the Arnstein forestry enterprise, which also includes the Guttenberger forest.

The tower is built of oak.
The trees for the wood have been grown and processed here in the region.
