Goethova vyhlídka, Observation tower in Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic.

Goethova vyhlídka is a 39-metre observation tower with an excursion restaurant on Výšina věčného života above Karlovy Vary, at 636.4 m elevation. Vienna architects Ferdinand Fellner and Hermann Helmer designed it in a pseudo-Gothic style, the same office behind the Stephaniewarte on Vienna's Kahlenberg. A half-timbered café salon with a beer garden was built beside the tower.

The tower was built in 1888–1889 to plans by the Vienna office Fellner & Helmer, in a pseudo-Gothic style, after Crown Princess Stephanie of Belgium suggested a lookout on the hill; the town of Karlovy Vary financed it and inaugurated it on 21 July 1889. A timber-framed café with a beer garden was added beside it. After 1918 it was renamed Stifter-Warte, from 1945 Stalinova rozhledna, and in 1957 it received the name Goethe. Closed in 1960, reopened in the 1970s, shut again in the late 1990s, it was rebuilt for 33 million crowns and reopened on 3 May 2019.

The tower's name changed with each political era: Stephaniewarte after its instigator, Crown Princess Stephanie of Belgium, then Stifter-Warte after the writer Adalbert Stifter, Stalinova rozhledna after 1945, and Goethova vyhlídka since 1957, honouring Goethe, who took cures in Karlsbad several times. A three-kilometre Geisterpfad (ghost trail) with fairy-tale panels now leads past the tower.

The tower reopened to the public on 3 May 2019 after reconstruction completed in autumn 2018. It stands on Výšina věčného života at 636 m, about 3.5 km on foot from the Sprudel spring via the Drei Kreuze viewpoint, on a fairly steep climb. A snack shop operates inside; a three-kilometre Geisterpfad (ghost trail) with panels of short fairy tales starts nearby.

The tower stands on Výšina věčného života at 636.4 m; German sources give 638 m. From the platform visitors see the city forest of Karlovy Vary, the ridge of the western Ore Mountains with Klínovec to the north, the Falkenau basin to the west and the Doupov Mountains to the south.
