The observation tower on the Schießberg was commissioned by the Swabian Alb Association. It was built by Italian guest workers in 1902. In the meantime, visibility is barely possible because the surrounding trees have grown too big.
The tower is open in summer.

A great tower still in very good condition. A spacious meadow with a great tower.
