Wilhelmswarte, Observation tower in Gaaden, Austria.

The stone tower rises 675 meters above sea level on the Anninger mountain, offering views of the Vienna Woods and Lower Austria region.

The Wilhelmswarte stands as a protected monument in Austria, registered under number 77983, representing late 19th-century architectural characteristics of Lower Austria.

Multiple hiking trails of varying lengths connect to the tower from Gumpoldskirchen and Gaaden, making it accessible through different route options.
