    Very well restored border tower from the Cold War, now a great vantage point with a great view of the Bohemian, Upper Palatinate and the Bavarian Forest.

      The Havran (German Großer Rabenberg) is the fourth highest peak of the Upper Palatinate Forest on the Czech side. It is located east of the Czech-German border about one kilometer southwest of the deserted village of Skláře (Neu-Windischgrätz) or five kilometers east of Flossenbürg. To the north rises the Entenbühl (901 meters), to the south-west is Schellenberg Castle.

        Very nicely designed by the Czech operators. Now also with a photo point on the viewing platform. A historical insight into what happened at the border is also given on the individual levels of the tower. Very beautiful.
