    Hiking

    If you have the opportunity and the tower is open, go up. It offers a magnificent view over the Neckar Valley.

    the view down from the chapel to Horb is simply great
    Translated by
    The watchtower was built in 1422 to protect against the Counts of Zollern at the time of the city wars, when the County of Hohenberg was pledged to a consortium of 19 Swabian imperial cities. Next to the Schütteturm is the Ottilien chapel, built around 1431, which was visited as a place of pilgrimage by many eye sufferers.
    In 1900, three Horber clubs renovated it as an observation tower.
    Steep climb up the Way of the Cross, but worth it. You have a wonderful view of Horb and the Neckar valley - just enjoy the panorama. 👍🤩
