A little below the tower is a large parking lot with refreshments to Lindemannsruhe.

At that time - around the time of the transition from the 19th to the 20th century - there was lively interest in many places in Germany in honoring the Chancellor OTTO von BISMARCK (* 1815 to + 1898, the first Chancellor of the German Empire from 1871, previously Prime Minister of Prussia and Chancellor of the North German Confederation) with a monument. But only in very few cases was a statue made and erected of him as a person. Sometimes they were pyramid-like structures, but often - like here on the Peterskopf - real (observation) towers were built and named after Bismarck.

There are numerous Bismarck towers in Germany, France, the Czech Republic, Poland, Austria, Cameroon, Tanzania, and Chile; of the approximately 240 originally built, about 170 still exist today.
