Probably the only surviving cast iron tower... The climb is always worth it. It costs 2 € and goes through a machine... so put some change in it... the 120 steps are rewarded with a great view

Beautiful iron observation tower, bring some change to visit.

The Czorneboh is one of the highlights in the region. Many visitors flock here especially at the weekend. There are ascents of various difficulties to the summit. I chose the crossing from Hromadnik over the ridge. Adventurous but very cool. There is refreshment in the mountain hut and then you definitely have to go up the tower. The view to the west and north is wonderful. Unfortunately, towards the south and east, the trees are now taller than the tower. Since 1867 there has been a station of the Royal Saxon Triangulation on the tower. The granite pillar in the tower structure is a reminder of this. "The Royal Saxon Triangulation (here with the historical proper name) is a state survey carried out in the years 1862 to 1890 on the territory of the Kingdom of Saxony with the simultaneous creation of a trigonometric network. The aim was to record the national territory scientifically and geodetically and to create the basis for the production of precise maps by establishing permanently marked reference points." - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C3%B6niglich-S %C3%axial_triangulation#stations_2nd_order From the station one observed from N.T.R.

Wonderful view 👌

Like all mountain inns, a worthwhile destination. Here you can take a wonderful break both outside and inside. Unfortunately, the guest rooms are no longer available. The observation tower should definitely be climbed. The view extends far over the mountains on one side and far into the flatter north. The actual summit of Czorneboh is a little away from the inn.

There is a cottage on top of the Hochstein. Here you can eat and drink well and cheaply. There is also a parking lot here for those who do not want to hike. A lookout tower and some rocks to climb up.

An original idea for a summit book.

Around 1850 the idea was born to build an observation tower on the Löbauer Berg. In 1853 the project took concrete shape. The appearance and financing of the building were discussed. Plans existed for a stone tower and one made of cast iron. In the end, the decision was made to use the cast iron variant. But the city fathers still had the problem of financing. Then a man decided to take the tower project into his own hands. It was the Löbau master baker Friedrich August Bretschneider (born 1805). After negotiations between him and the city council, construction could begin in 1854. From January 12, 1854, work began to cut down the space on which the tower would later stand. With a climbing tree erected at the projected tower height, the best vantage point on the mountain was found. Supporting columns were anchored eight meters deep in the rock and an octagonal scaffolding made of 80 square meters of wood was erected for the tower structure. In February, King Friedrich August of Saxony gave permission for the tower to bear his name and for the Saxon coat of arms to be attached. On the occasion of the king's 57th birthday, the iron ground anchor was solemnly installed on May 18, 1854. At the beginning of June, work began on erecting the tower. Despite the technical possibilities at the time, assembly only took two and a half months. Contrary to expectations, the construction had cost a total of around 25,000 thalers - not easy for a master baker to cope with and therefore all the more honorable. In order to earn this sum, Bretschneider would have had to bake and sell around 1.6 million kilograms of bread. The inauguration of the tower had to be postponed from August 1 until further notice because the Saxon king had traveled to the Tyrolean Alps. There he died in an accident. Overshadowed by this event, the inauguration took place on September 9, 1854. In the years that followed, the "cast iron" was enthusiastically received by guests from Germany and abroad. Bretschneider did not experience the upswing that the tower took. He died on July 22, 1863. Source; https://www.loebau.de/
