    Radome
    The former radome on the summit of the Wasserkuppe is a landmark that can be seen from afar.
    Formerly a strictly guarded restricted military area, the area can now be visited by everyone.
    The circuit around the dome is Hesse's highest viewing platform with a unique 360 ° panoramic view over the land of the open distant.
