In the 1970s, the province of Liège decided to build a 77.60 m high observation tower. Construction lasted from 1976 to 1982 due to financial and political problems, after which the facility remained unused until 1996 for the same reasons. When the observation tower was put into operation, it became apparent that most of the view was obscured by forests and the surrounding hills because the height of the trees had not been taken into account. The operators have changed several times since 1997. Since 2007, the operation of the observation tower, including the museum and restaurant, has been in the hands of a voluntary association. At the beginning of 2008, a tourism center with a museum and presentation room, as well as a cafeteria open at weekends with bike rental, were opened on behalf of the Walloon Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

Great view, worth taking the elevator up and dining in the restaurant. The menu is only in French; There are many delicious dishes and special Belgian beers, the "Septante-Sept" (77) is recommended.
