    The fir bar is the western foothills of the Gibacht mountain, it offers a wonderful view over the "Upper Palatinate hill country". The "lighthouse of humanity" is also located here.

        The "lighthouse of humanity" was built in autumn 2007 by many volunteers.

        The idea came from Ralph Wenzel, the tower consists of approx. 10 tons of stones, some of which come from different regions and countries of the world. The 4 glass elements used in the west were cast by hand



        -World disc

        - Christian cross

        -Islamic crescent

        -David star



        light up at night using solar technology.

        This light should shine into the world and call people to more peace and understanding among one another!
