Rozhledna Romanka, Observation tower in Hrubý Jeseník, Czech Republic

Rozhledna Romanka is a 50-metre steel lattice observation tower on a 4-metre artificial mound in Zahájí, near Hrubý Jeseník. Its triangular plan is divided into several levels with viewing platforms; 116 metal grate steps lead to the top platform at 26 metres. A concrete column rising from the mound houses equipment for three transmitters.

The tower was built in eight months and ceremonially opened on 28 March 2003, when it was christened Romanka. In the 2002 Grand Prix architektů competition it won the prize in the landscape architecture category. It was designed by architects Oldřich Hájek, Jaroslav Šafer, Laco Fecsu and Tomáš Pavlík as a base station for three mobile operators.

The tower was christened Romanka at its ceremonial opening on 28 March 2003, reportedly after a local girl in a wheelchair who came regularly to watch the construction. The name was given during the opening ceremony, not by the architects.

The tower stands about 700 metres from the bus stops in the village centre and roughly two kilometres from Oskořínek railway station on line 061 Nymburk–Jičín. A car can drive right up to the foot of the tower, where parking is available. There is no waymarked hiking trail leading here.

The tower sits on an artificial hill at just 204 meters above sea level, making it the lowest-positioned observation tower in the Czech Republic. Despite this modest elevation, the structure still offers views across the surrounding landscape.
