ここからの眺めは素晴らしいです。

The cross dedicated to Saint Barbara stands at an old sandstone quarry.

Nestled on the edge of the Vogler hills lies this idyllic viewpoint with a shelter, offering a sweeping panorama of the Rühler Schweiz region. Perched high above the Weser Valley, this spot boasts breathtaking views of the wooded slopes and rolling valleys. The location invites hikers and cyclists to take a break – ideal for enjoying the tranquility of nature or simply letting your gaze wander.

Simply a beautiful view (weather permitting :-))

The Royal Prussian Optical Telegraph Station No. 28 is a significant testament to the early history of communications in the 19th century. It was part of a far-reaching network of telegraph lines established by Prussia to transmit messages quickly and reliably over long distances. The stations operated with a system of movable signal arms that were visible from afar, enabling the transmission of messages in a flash – long before electric telegraphs became widespread. The station was strategically located and served to connect important cities and military installations. From here, messages could be relayed to the next station within minutes, significantly accelerating political and military decision-making. The station's design was functional: A sturdy tower provided sufficient height to make the signals visible over long distances, while adjacent outbuildings housed accommodations for the telegraph operators and storage rooms for technical equipment.

It's inconspicuous, the highest point of the hill, but richly "decorated" with its chic stone marker, benches, and geodetic point. Unfortunately, there's no view from here, but the path to the Wilhelm Raabe Tower on the Große Sohle isn't far.

Attention: As of August 10, 2025, the trip will be discontinued from midday due to the low water level!

Fantastic view from the top of the tower, and the tower itself looks cool too! Thanks to those who made it possible and built it <3
