The 820 meter high mountain "Hohe Warte" is located directly on the Albsteig. At the highest point of the Hohe Warte there is an observation tower with a height of 23 meters. The tower was built and inaugurated in 1923, after there had previously been a raised stand and then a viewing platform. The tower was built in honor of those who died in World War I.

A wooden high stand was erected on the Hohe Warte in 1896, which came in as early as 1904 and was replaced by a new observation scaffold. This scaffolding had already fallen into disrepair in 1911. The current brick tower was built with great victims in 1923 would be the period of inflation together with the memorial for the fallen members of the Swabian Alb Society. There is a commemoration every second Sunday in October. The tower is open on Sundays and public holidays.
