      The Gigel Tower, built around the 14th century, was rebuilt in 1788 after heavy shelling during the Thirty Years' War. It is a typical observation tower, from whose balustrade the "Gigelesmann" (Gigel's Man) watched for fires and also rang the storm bell when enemies approached or during storms.

      The Schillerhöhe is a lookout point under an old linden tree not far from the Gigel Tower. This idyllic spot invites you to linger and, in good weather, offers a sweeping view over the rooftops of Biberach.

      The Gigelberg Hall, a wooden structure dating from 1895, and the Old Town Beer Hall are part of the park area laid out in 1828 on the initiative of Friedrich Goll. During the Biberach Marksmen's Festival in July, locals and visitors make a pilgrimage "up the mountain," where the festival grounds and amusement park are located.

        What a fantastic view of Biberach's historic old town. It's definitely worth coming up here.
