Suur Munamägi Tower, Observation tower in Rõuge Rural Municipality, Estonia
Suur Munamägi Tower is a concrete observation structure located on Estonia's highest point in Rõuge Rural Municipality. The tower provides access to a viewing platform that overlooks the surrounding southern landscape.
The current tower was completed in 1939, representing the fifth structure built on this summit. This history reflects the long-standing importance of the site as a vantage point.
The tower stands as Estonia's highest observation point, allowing visitors to see across the country's southern landscapes up to 50 kilometers in all directions.
The tower is accessible to visitors and can be reached on foot or by elevator. It's best to check weather conditions before ascending, as visibility varies significantly depending on the season and clouds.
An elevator installation in 2005 modernized the structure, making the observation platform accessible to more visitors throughout the year.
