The Schänzelturm is a 13 m high observation tower built in 1874 on the Steigerkopf near Edenkoben in the Rhineland-Palatinate district of Südliche Weinstrasse and at the same time the highest tower in the low mountain range of the Palatinate Forest.

Also absolutely recommendable with snow.

In winter with lots of snow you feel like in the fairytale forest

Below the Schänzelturm was 1795 a battlefield. This is recalled by two large memorial stones. On the way, there are still several carved stones indicating the battle.

In honor of the soldiers who fell in the war against France in 1794, this tower was built in 1894, in memory of the battle 100 years ago. Dedication:
"In memory of the brave Prussian warriors who died here in the battle against the French invasion army on July 13, 1794 for the German fatherland".

The Schänzelturm is an 1874 built and 13 m high observation tower on the Steigerkopf between the Edenkobener hut and the FH Heldenstein. A historic place.

Great view - mountain panorama

When the weather is nice you have a wonderful view

Nice view!

From the Schänzelturm you have a beautiful view over the treetops in the vastness of the Palatinate hills ...

From the tower you have a magnificent view over the Palatinate Forest

At the tower you can find information about Franco-German history. The view from the tower plateau is also worth the climb.

At the foot of the tower there is a table with benches and from above you have a beautiful all-round view of the Palatinate Forest. When the weather is nice, lizards cavort on the platform.

Also beautiful in winter, we had a great view with a fabulous bluing of the mountains. Great view of the snowy peaks. The hiking trails around it are often narrow and very beautiful!

Great view! Starting off well from the lolos rest.
