The Wittelsbach Tower near Bad Kissingen has two freely accessible viewing platforms. The upper platform can be reached via a very narrow spiral staircase.
At the foot of the tower there is a geodetic point where you can check your GPS transmitter.

Hiking

Even in winter with minus degrees it is a nice destination. Only on the last part uphill you should be careful in winter when it is snowing as it can lead to rapid sleigh rides (which is of course also very worth seeing)
