    Anton Wiede, the owner of the Rosenthal paper mill in Blankenstein, had this tower built in 1903. His factory was celebrating its 20th anniversary at the time.
    From the top, you have a beautiful view of Blankenstein and the Franconian Forest.

      From there you have a comprehensive view on Blankenstein and the entrance is free.

        The founder of the paper factory in Blankenfelde gave this tower its name. After climbing the spiral staircase, you will be rewarded with a wonderful view of the Saale valley.
