Despite Corona, this extraordinary observation tower is open for inspection. A staircase leads up and down through the shape of a double helix, which are then signposted for one-way traffic. With the car park just 400 meters away, the tower is very popular.

Really a nice view. It can be overcrowded on weekends, bank holidays and in good weather.
