From many points of the Upper Vogtland the Wirtsberg at Landwüst is recognizable as a striking terrain point.

Above all, the summit house stands out on the 664 m high mountain with its idiosyncratic construction.
After 1985, the framework of the trigonometric point was no longer mountable, the idea of the collaborators to architect Benno Kolbe could prevail and it was not built the usual shelters.
Thus, the building in octagonal shape was created - possibly inspired by the then operated by the church forest next Meiler - in which ingeniously on two floors a panoramic view is guaranteed.
The craftsman of the LPG plant production Breitenfeld and the open-air museum Landwüst built the predominantly wooden construction.
Interesting also that shortly before the turn the information boards had to be disassembled via landmarks in the direction of Bavaria.
For hikers, the observation tower offers protection against the weather, clear views in all directions and good orientation for a wide environment.
In addition to the lookout building is still a part of the Royal Saxon Triangulation Station from 1876 received.

One of the most beautiful places in the Upper Vogtland with an incredibly beautiful view of the Eger basin and the Vogtland!

A wonderful panoramic view and a good rest stop, but without stopping.
