Currently (as of early 2022) not accessible; a large portion of the ladder steps has been dismantled, and the wooden balcony is also partially dilapidated. 🥴 What a shame🥴.
Instead, the former spruce forest that stood east of the tower has been cleared. And a tree-free view of the Grüninger Warte has been created.
