      In 1882 the tower was built by master builder Theodor Dalbazzi. Over the decades, two Saxon kings (King Albert of Saxony, in 1883 and King Friedrich August III, in 1908) have visited the "König Albert Tower.

      Above the entrance to the tower is the "König Albert memorial plaque", which gives an insight into the history of the tower and an unforgettable day in the history of Kirchberg. 53 steps lead the visitor up. Arriving at the viewing platform, he is rewarded with a unique view over the roofs of the town of Kirchberg into the Ore Mountains and Vogtland - a view that hikers will not soon forget.
