    Hiking

    The King Friedrich August Tower on Löbauer Berg, named after Frederick Augustus the Second, is the only remaining cast-iron observation tower in Europe and probably the oldest cast-iron tower.

    Hiking

    Probably the only surviving cast iron tower... The climb is always worth it. It costs 2 € and goes through a machine... so put some change in it... the 120 steps are rewarded with a great view
