Riesenbühl Observation tower

Imposing wooden construction with interior flight of stairs and roofed lookout platform. The original is located on the Riesenbühl in the surroundings of Lake Schluchsee/ Black Forest. Erected for the first time in 1931, it collapsed in 1945 during a storm. In the late 70s it was rebuilt using Douglas fir timber ensuring its resistance to storms. You have to climb more than 140 steps to reach the lookout platform that offers a breathtaking panorama of the Black Forest.
