    Press release from the city January 23, 2024
    Goethestein observation tower closed due to acute risk of collapse.
    The Parks Department announces that the observation tower at Goethestein in Frauenstein will be closed immediately due to the acute risk of collapse. In recent years there have been repeated attempts to renovate the wooden structure. Unfortunately, the condition had deteriorated, so an expert was called in, who confirmed the poor condition and called for immediate closure due to the acute risk of collapse.

      Current status as of August 10, 2024. The tower is no longer there. What a pity. I really hope that a new tower will be built in the same place. However, it would have to be a bit higher than the old wooden tower. Recently, you couldn't really see much from above. And precisely because the place is on or near the Rheinsteig, a new tower would be a highlight.

        The view towards Wiesbaden through the vineyards and orchards is just great in good weather.
