The Kaitsch or Kötsch is with 497 m height, the second highest elevation in the district of Weimarer Land. On its summit is the 26-meter-high lookout tower Carolinenturm ...
If you have climbed the 106 steps to the viewing platform, there is a good view of Weimar, Kiliansroda, Mechelroda, Mellingen, the Thuringian Basin, in good visibility to Kyffhäuser and resin. In the south, the chain of the Thuringian Forest is recognizable.

On Sundays, the tower is open for ascent until 5pm.
The Carolinen tower is a 26 m high observation tower, which was built in 1909 in honor of the deceased Grand Duchess Caroline of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach made of calcareous sandstone. If you have climbed the 106 steps to the viewing platform, there is a good view of Weimar, Kiliansroda, Mechelroda, Mellingen, the Thuringian Basin, in good visibility to Kyffhäuser and resin. In the south, the chain of the Thuringian Forest is recognizable.
