As the highest point far and wide, the tower offers a wonderful panoramic view over large parts of the Palatinate Forest. There is also an outdoor rest area and a large room with tables and a fireplace, where you can take shelter even in bad weather.

In good weather you can see very far in all directions. There are also some guides that show the direction of known places. For those who are afraid of heights: The tower is made of colored sandstone and does not wobble even in strong winds. The parapet is very solid and also has a railing.

From the tower you have a beautiful all-round view of the Palatinate Forest and the Vosges.
There is even a cozy fireplace room.
