The tower has been restored and is also accessible. Some of the steps are missing the screw connections, but it still kept me going. The view from the tower must have been impressive in the past because wine was still grown on the slopes. So it was low-growing. Today you are standing in the treetops.

The watchtower has been beautifully restored. Maybe we can do it again soon.

Unfortunately, the structural condition is questionable, but maybe one day a nice solution will be found, like with the waiting areas on the waiting circuit in Steinau
