    The wooden predecessor, which opened in 1999, was already a popular destination for tourist hikes in Calauer Schweiz and a well-known landmark of the surrounding "Plinsdörfer". Due to structural damage and vandalism, the decision to demolish it had to be made in 2014. The decision to demolish it also gave rise to the desire for a replacement building. The municipality of Luckaitztal also approached the town of Calau and found further support for the project. Under the set specifications of being able to build and maintain the new tower from a durable material, with a low-maintenance construction, at an affordable price, research came across an observation tower built in 2003 in Suderburger Land. After an on-site inspection in September 2014 by representatives from the municipality of Luckaitztal, the Altdöbern office and the town of Calau, the decision was made to build an identical tower, with appropriate local adaptations of the project, as a replacement building in Calauer Schweiz.

      Very nice lookout tower in Calauer Switzerland, in the immediate vicinity of the village of Weißag. The hiking trail leads from Gaumers Gasthof uphill to the viewpoint. Beautiful section of forest and lots of nature. The tower was built from innumerable clinker bricks from the Wieneberg clinker plant in Buchwäldchen. A total of 470 layers of stones reach a height of up to 43 meters. The observation deck is at a height of 38 meters. To reach the platform you have to climb 216 steps.

        Coming out of the coniferous forest, one suddenly stands in front of the huge chimney-like Luckaitztaler brick tower and can be amazed. And if you're still very lucky, a couple of kestrels flutter around him.
