    "On the way to and from Bad Windsheim, you can take a detour to the renovated watchtower on the Weinturm plateau. From there, you have a wonderful view over Windsheim Bay. Whether as an observation post, tourist destination, or architectural monument, the watchtower has a varied history. It has existed for almost 600 years: as early as 1428, a wooden watchtower was built in the vineyards to protect the town's winegrowing and to monitor the road to Würzburg. The tower, as we know it today, was built in 1674. The building is a unique monument with a stone ground floor and a wooden superstructure."

    The Weinturm Open Air Festival has also been held here annually since 1977.

      If you go up the day and footpath in the direction of the wine tower hill, you will almost reach the top of the old defense tower in Bad Windsheim. A little further then the plateau of the wine tower hill. From here you have a gigantic view in all directions, for which alone it is worth going up the few meters.

        An information board wouldn't be bad.
