The Waldnerturm, also called the "four-tower tower", is about ten meters high and is located on a 267 meter high saddle between two clearly higher hills, the Kreuzberg and the Bocksberg. For what? The tower was intended as a venue and resting place for noble hunting companies, later he was a weekend hostel of a youth organization. After all, you have a top view here to one side: to the west you have a clear view of the Rhine plain. Opposite, you can already see the drumming and look forward to climbing it by bike. Speaking of: once climb the tower is also one of them. By the way: There is a fireplace here - if the break should be a bit luscious.

Nice tower but probably an early marketing gimmick of the builder
