Tips
Built in 1987, the Christoph Scheiner Tower is an approximately 9 meter high wooden structure and offers a view from its platform of the neighboring Neufnach Valley and to the south towards Markt Wald. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoph-Scheiner-Turm
It is named after the Jesuit Father Christoph Scheiner, who was born in Markt Wald in 1573 and who, as an astronomer, was involved in the discovery of sunspots and invented various optical instruments. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoph_Scheinertranslated by

Definitely worth seeing. Great view over the valleys and hills of perennials.
