The Upper German-Raetian Limes leads over the Taunus crest, with the Klingenkopf halfway between the small fort Altes Jagdhaus in the south-west and the small fort Heidenstock in the north-east. At the summit are the foundations of a watchtower, which is known as Sentinel 3/55 "Klingenkopf" in the course of the Limes between the small forts Altes Jagdhaus and Heidenstock. Unfortunately, there is no information board about the foundation on site.

You have to look for something to look for the foundation, otherwise well preserved, but with too little information.
