    The brick lookout tower and the building at the base of the tower are built of concrete blocks and were opened to the public in 2002. The tower has a square ground plan and reaches a height of 28.2 meters. After climbing 128 steps to the lookout tower gallery, you will have a view of the Babylon, Horní les, Milenka or Babí lom lookout towers. You can enjoy the view of Bystřice nad Pernštejnem, Zubštejn Castle, Harusův Kopec, Devět skal or Javořice.
    The lookout tower is open all year round, please check the website.
