Great view of the Buseck valley and even as far as Gießen. The Gießener Zeitung wrote about it in 2010: Kimmel*s pensioner's tower on the Hohe Berg high above Buseck can be seen from afar.
With unprecedented personal effort and without public funding, this observation tower with a magnificent view over the Buseck valley was built by a number of pensioners led by Heinrich Kimmel. * Source: Gießener Zeitung
