Peilturm Kap Arkona, Radio tower at Cape Arkona, Germany

The Peilturm stands 23 meters tall on the northern coast of Rügen island, featuring an observation platform accessible by 111 steps.

Visitors can access the observation deck for 3 euros per person, with operating hours extending from 10:00 to 18:00 during summer months.

From the viewing platform at 20 meters height, visitors observe the Baltic Sea coastline, Wittow peninsula, and Hiddensee island in all directions.
