With a 10 degree tilt angle, the tower is even more crooked than the famous "Leaning Tower of Pisa". From its viewing platform, a unique view opens up over the Senftenberg Lake and the protected island complex. If the visibility is good, you can even see the main grandstand of the Lausitzring. An ideal resting point for cyclists and hikers on a tour around the Senftenberg Lake. The tower is 31.5 meters high.
Every year, the fastest person to climb the 176 steps is chosen in a stair race.

Admission is free. At the entrance to the stairs there is something similar to a parking ticket machine, you can put in a donation and a receipt will even be printed out. I was happy to donate because the view from the tower is a real highlight.

The only way to get there by car is via Hosena, which is an extension of Senftenberger Strasse, and then you can almost get to the tower.
It's really worth climbing the tower.
It's a well-maintained staircase and the view from the top is great.
