Here, one surprisingly encounters a modern sculpture that transports one's thoughts back to ancient times: In Greek mythology, there was Charon, the ferryman to the underworld. At burial, a coin was placed on each of the dead's eyes; this was Charon's reward for transporting the deceased safely. Why he, as the ferryman, is standing not on a barge, but on a four-wheeled cart, is perhaps a free interpretation by the artist...

The tower is located on the Brandenburg section of the Green Belt on the former inner-German border. An imposing landmark that can be seen from afar. The tower was largely left in its original condition and was designated a National Natural Monument in 2022. Visitors can access it via an attached external spiral staircase, thus transforming the former border tower into an observation tower.

Nice section. Easy to ride.

The Schwedenschanze on the Höhbeck is a historical fortification that got its name from its use by Swedish troops during the Thirty Years' War. Today the Schwedenschanze is an interesting destination for those interested in history and hikers who want to immerse themselves in history and enjoy nature at the same time. The observation tower offers you a fantastic all-round view of the southern section of the Lower Saxony Elbe Valley Biosphere Reserve. From the platform you can see the impressive Elbe, which winds through the landscape. The riparian forests, wet meadows and sand banks that surround Europe's fourth largest river are a habitat for numerous bird species, insects and the Elbe beaver.

Walkable border tower with a great view.

According to Greek mythology, Charon is a ferryman who brings the dead across the Acheron for a fee.

You should definitely stop here and climb the tower using the external stairs. Once at the top, you will be rewarded with history and the great view.

Great view of the Elbe and the surrounding area.
