Koráb, Observation tower in Kdyně, Czech Republic
The Koráb tower reaches a height of 50 meters and features a steel tubular construction with an observation deck at 30 meters elevation.
Originally built as a wooden structure with a mountain lodge, the tower was rebuilt in 1992 as a steel construction that also functions as a television transmitter.
The mountain lodge at the base of the tower contains furnishings in the traditional Chodsko style, reflecting the regional heritage of western Bohemia.
Visitors need to climb 144 stairs to reach the observation platform, which provides views extending to the Šumava mountains and, in clear weather, to the Alps.
The tower's construction was overseen by the uranium industry institute of Ostrov nad Ohří under architect Josef Egert's direction.
