    Very nice observation tower in the Muskauer Faltenbogen Geopark on the Polish side near Bad Muskau / Łęknica in the former mining area of the Babina mine.
    Very nice views.

      Beautiful observation tower with a platform at 14 and 26 meters.
      Great view of the former mine Babina

        Some steps have to be overcome in order to get a broad view, especially in the direction of Germany (here the lignite power plant Boxberg).
