A great roar can be heard here. But it is a comfortable volume and no noise

Newly built in 1989/90; is reminiscent of the salt tradition of Bad Oeynhausen and serves as. Open-air inhalatorium. Not far from the location of this graduation tower, three graduation towers were built by 1932/33 and 1939/40, which were essential parts of the "Neusalzwerk" saltworks, which were founded in the middle of the 18th century and closed in 1928 and have also been used as a spa treatment since the spa was founded in 1845 were used. At the turn of the 19th century, around 50,000 hundredweight of salt were boiled in the saltworks every year.

After the death of Kaiser Wilhelm I, Kaiser Wilhelm monuments were commissioned in many places in Prussia. As one of the last major monuments, the personal and national monument places the emperor at the center of the nationally shaped culture of remembrance of the late 19th century, which placed the national communalization in the foreground. At the Porta Westfalica as a place that shapes the landscape, an educational program for national standardization was implemented with the Kaiser Wilhelm monument. The unification of the German Empire as a result of the Franco-Prussian War was celebrated here in the person of the Emperor.

From the viewing platform you can see parts of the surrounding mountains, a section of the Weser Valley and a southern area of the North German Plain.

The Moltketurm is an approx. 14 meter high observation tower on the Wittekindsberg near the Porta Westfalica. From its viewing platform you can see parts of the surrounding mountains, a section of the Weser Valley and a southern area of the North German Plain. The tower stands on the ridge directly on the stretch of the Witekindsweg and the European long-distance hiking trail E11.

Nice seating to watch the waterfall.
