    This small observation tower is somewhat hidden about 300 meters east of the Ems cycle path. From here you have great views of the renaturalized Ems floodplains. The Heinz Rinsche Tower owes its name to the former Emsdetten teacher and environmentalist Heinz Rinsche, under whose leadership the Ems Protection Association was founded.

        The old Ems floodplain landscape is being recreated here. According to the "Ems floodplain protection concept", the habitats "near-natural lowland river", "floodplain forest" and "floodplain meadows" are to be reactivated here, thereby promoting fish species typical of the area such as bitterling, brook lamprey, bullhead and wolffish, as well as bird species such as sand martin, kingfisher, golden oriole, nightingale and lapwing.
