    The Lucas Cranach Tower is a 22 meter high lookout tower of the Frankenwaldverein near the Upper Franconian district town of Kronach. He is named after the German painter and graphic artist Lucas Cranach (1472 - 1553), who was born in Kronach. The observation deck of the tower is located 18 meters above the ground and can be reached via a spiral staircase with 88 steps.

      Here many hiking trails lead along, e.g. also the Frankenweg. The region is fantastic for hiking (especially in summer). For the hikers, there are wonderful views on all sides.

        The Lucas Cranach Tower, a lookout tower of the Frankenwaldverein e. V., offers a magnificent view of Kronach, the Franconian Forest and the Main Valley. The climb is worthwhile in any case!
