    Tower shaft made of basalt quarry stone of preserved eight meters high on a square ground plan of four by four meters. Inside, two floors with steel stairs are still preserved. The tower served as a blast tower for the Rouselle basalt works and was used, among other things, to load the lorry train with stones. denkxweb.denkmalpflege-hessen.de/107143

    It is quite a massive tower. It is located a bit away from the actual quarry.

    A little off the path you will find this large old natural stone tower without a roof.
    I have no idea what it was used for.
