Beautifully, these towers called "landscape windows" are not really - they are too reminiscent of threatening watchtowers - but the view from up there is really fantastic.

The landscape windows were built as a "branch office" of the Landesgartenschau 2002 in Bad Zwischenahn. Spread over the Ammerland there are 5 landscape windows, which of course are on every highlight in Komoot:
Apen: Water - Tower of a dike judge (komoot.de/highlight/115752)
Edewecht: Mills - Tower of a Dreamer (komoot.de/highlight/113930)
Rastede: Geestrand - Tower of a painter (komoot.de/highlight/115419)
Westerstede: Rhododendron - Tower of a Rhodo Queen (komoot.de/highlight/113926)
Wiefelstede: Wall hedges - tower of a poet (komoot.de/highlight/115416)

Here is a bike tour that leads past all landscape windows:
