    Tips

    The Nonnenstein is a 273.1 m high mountain in the Wiehen Mountains north of Rödinghausen. It lies exactly on the border between the North Rhine-Westphalian districts of Minden-Lübbecke and Herford.

    "Nonnenstein" is also the name given to a 14-meter-high observation tower on the mountain. The structure was built in 1897 as a nine-meter-high "Kaiser Wilhelm Tower", which replaced a previously existing wooden tower. In 1968, the tower was raised to its current height of 14 meters due to the taller trees.
