The wing telegraph has been broken for some time and can no longer be adjusted.

Again a beautiful point, with many opportunities for a beautiful photo.

There is really a great view at every point here, with the most beautiful photo motifs.

Great view of the Rhine Valley.

Spitzer Stein viewpoint History / wing telegraph Optical telegraphy for the transmission of messages according to the Chappe system. The French technician Claude Chappe developed at the time of the French. Revolution a technically feasible optical telegraph device based on the transmission of characters with the aid of pivoting signal arms. A swiveling crossbeam was attached to a high mast with two further swiveling bars at each end, so that different letters could be signaled with a code depending on the position. The telegraph stations were located between nine and twelve kilometers apart, depending on the nature of the terrain, so that the signs could be clearly seen with a telescope. Napoleon Bonaparte used this flexible and fast system to communicate with the various troops and probably also to organize the entire Rhine province. In 1794 a telegraph line was set up between Paris and Lille, which spanned 270 km with 22 stations. The transmission time of a letter or a coded message took about 2 minutes!

System / Sign System Chappe - Each of the two signal arms could assume seven different positions, the crossbars two more each. The system thus enabled 196 different characters.
