Even from afar you can see another landmark of Cadolzburg that can be seen from afar: the lookout tower, popularly known as a pencil in the vernacular. Built in 1893 by the Münchner Lokalbahn AG and the Cadolzburg market, it has already served as a popular excursion destination for many day-trippers. Since 1892 you could drive with the "Rangaubahn" from Fürth into the Frankenmarkt, to admire the beautiful fruit blossom and the fantastic distant view into the Rangau. Even today, every visitor climbing the 143 steps will be rewarded with a remarkable view.
