The watchtower in Weikersheim is a worthwhile destination for hikers, especially because of the magnificent views over the Tauber Valley, Weikersheim Castle, and the town. It is part of the historic Landwehr fortifications built in the Middle Ages to fortify the town.

At the edge of the winter mountain forest at the edge of the vineyards stands the historic watchtower. From there you have a beautiful view of Weikersheim. A picnic table is ready for a rest. The tower cannot be climbed.
