    The Eugen Richter Tower is also open during the observatory's visiting hours. From this observation tower you have a wonderful panoramic view of the city of Hagen and the surrounding area. See sternwarte-hagen.de/eugen-richter-turm

    One of Otto von Bismarck's worst adversaries was also immortalized in Hagen with a tower. Eugen Richter represented the Hagen-Schwelm constituency until his death in 1906. And as a small dig at the Reich Chancellor, his tower was built on a higher ridge than the Bismarck Tower. From high above you have a monumental view of the Ruhr area and the Sauerland.

    A key is required to visit the tower. The key can be picked up at the observatory in Hagen. The opening hours of the observatory can be found at sternwarte-hagen.de.

    Unfortunately not always up. Just look at the public observatory on the website when it's up.
