Borůvková hora observation tower, Observation tower in Javorník, Czech Republic.

The 25-meter metal and wood structure stands on Borůvková hora, providing views of Otmuchów lakes, Nysa lakes, and mountain ranges in the region.

The first wooden tower on this site was constructed in the 1870s by the Landek Spa administration near the borders of Prussia and Austria-Hungary.

The tower continues a regional tradition of mountaintop observation points, connecting visitors to both Czech and Polish landscapes across national boundaries.

The tower includes a shelter for protection during unfavorable weather conditions and features clearly marked access paths from the town of Javorník.

The structure combines metal framework with wooden cladding, a design choice made after previous wooden towers lasted less than ten years each.
