      Old watchtower, along the former "Iron Curtain". A small remnant of it stands next to the tower. A reminder of how much worse times were than today.

        In the middle of the forest, near Orfalu, along the former Iron Curtain, we find this observation tower. In good condition. Free to visit. There is an explanatory board and a "piece" of the Iron Curtain in its surroundings.
