オッペンハイムでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

A very beautiful tower. Strictly speaking, the tower is no longer located in Nierstein, but in Oppenheim (which is also assigned to the postal code 55276, i.e., Oppenheim). Therefore, it is sometimes referred to as the Oppenheim Defence Tower. The rest areas below the tower (two tables with benches and a bench) also invite you to linger.

When the visibility is good, you can see Frankfurt's skyscrapers very clearly.

The Trutzturm (Truth Tower) in the Nierstein district was built several years ago in the middle of the vineyards to protect against the rain. Many clubs held their festivals here, and radio amateurs also set up their equipment there. However, due to vandalism over the years, efforts to maintain the tower were repeatedly abandoned. Some radio amateurs from the surrounding area are now trying to restore the Trutzturm and its surroundings, hoping that more vandalism will be avoided. The tower is located approximately 215 meters above sea level and offers a magnificent view in all directions. This is ideal for us radio amateurs. The exact locator is JN49EU. Here are some pictures of the tower's renovation and the Three Towers Hike that took place in May. Source: https://www.qsl.net/do4ph/trutzturm/der%20trutzturm%20von%20nierstein.htm

Very nice place with a view

From the terrace you have a wonderful view:

Enter at your own risk is written at the lower entrance. A few steps have cracks, some of the steps are also a bit uneven and quite short. It is best to use the handrail and be careful 😉
