The Harkortturm, a lookout tower on the Harkortberg in Wetter (Ruhr), was built in 1884 in memory of Friedrich Harkort. The design by Düsseldorf architects Otto van Els and Bruno Schmitz won an architectural competition, although the construction costs were ultimately higher than planned. With a height of 35 meters, the tower offers a panoramic view over the Harkortsee to the Sauerland. Its architecture imitates medieval castles and is part of historicism. The tower originally housed a restaurant with a pavilion and beer garden before it was transferred to the municipality of Wetter in 1907. In 2009, a renovation was carried out to mark the 125th anniversary. The Harkort Tower is a listed building and is part of the Industrial Heritage Route. It is an important architectural monument and a popular tourist destination that combines history, architecture and picturesque views.

A particularly nice place to take a break ... even with seating and a view of the distance.

The Freiherr-vom-Stein Tower is located on the Kaisberg. At 285 m, the Kaisberg towers over the surrounding area and was therefore the ideal location for the construction of the tower. The surrounding area is a historical landscape and has been one of the most important areas for fossils and archaeological finds for more than 200 years. On the initiative of Friedrich Harkort, a wooden tower was initially built in 1856, which was replaced by the current building in the neo-Renaissance style between 1866 and 1869. The Freiherr-vom-Stein Tower was inaugurated on October 17, 1869. The inscription reads: The good foundation stone. The evil cornerstone. The German people's gemstone. The grateful citizenry to the memory of the Imperial Baron Heinrich Friedrich Karl vom und zum Stein 1869.
