Grand Duke Nikolaus Friedrich Peter built the tower for his wife Elisabeth von Sachsen-Altenburg, which he also named after her. Ten years later the tower was overgrown with the surrounding trees - there was nothing left to see. Without further ado, the tower was raised by four meters. Now the view was limitless again. But another ten years later the tree tops were in the way again. Then they were cut off without further ado.

Originally built by the Grand Duke Nikolaus Friedrich Peter for his wife Elisabeth in order to enjoy the beauty of the surrounding nature, the trees soon grew taller than the tower, so that it was increased by four meters as early as 1875. When the trees again threatened to tower over the tower, they were cut short so that it looked as if the tower had grown again. And so the fairy tale of a grown tower struggled for a long time around the walls. Although it has actually been open to visitors again since 2017, the tower could not be climbed during our visit due to the corona protection regulations, so we unfortunately could not relate to the legendary view.
