The Wolfert Tower was built in 1891 as the "Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Tower". It is one of the earliest multi-story concrete structures in southern Germany. From the tower you can enjoy a special panorama of the surroundings of Ehingen and, if the weather is good, you can also see the Alps. Around the tower, visitors will find an oasis of relaxation. A park with a pond and children's playground invites you to relax.
