            Unfortunately, you can't see as far as Cologne, but you can see the Sophienhöhe (overburden mountain from the Hambach opencast mine). To the right, you can see the Niederaussem power plant.

                  🥾🥾The Indemann is, due to its size of 20,000 individual steel parts, a weight of 280 tons,
                  and its location, high on the Goltsteinkuppe, the widely visible symbol of the perspectives that the Indeland offers its residents.
                  Inside, 216 steps lead up to the top viewing platform, where we were able to enjoy a very interesting tour ❣️
                  An elevator is also available up to the 8th level, 24 meters high in the steel giant.
                  Its modern architecture represents the technical future of the region, its constantly changing glow of 40,655 LEDs in the dark represents the structural change in the lignite mining area, its stability represents the more than 10,000-year history of the Indeland. The 36-meter-high landmark points with its arm to the changing landscape of the Inden opencast mine. The numerous viewing platforms offer the viewer a far-reaching, spectacular panoramic view of the Indeland.
