    The Baropturm is a stone-built tower that was inaugurated in 1878. The 17 meter high tower offers an impressive panoramic view of the Thuringian Forest, the slate mountains and the Ilm-Saale region; even the chunk in the Harz should be recognizable in clear weather. A total of 78 steps lead up.
