Rozhledna Kunovická hůrka, Wooden observation tower in Kunovice, Czech Republic.
Rozhledna Kunovická hůrka is a 7-metre wooden observation tower with a simple truss structure, standing about 62 metres from the 589-metre summit of Kunovická hůrka. A roofed platform at 4 metres is reached by an external wooden staircase with 14 steps and railings. It was moved to this spot in 2016 when the surrounding forest had grown and blocked the views.
The wooden tower was built in 2010 and opened to the public on 3 October 2010. It originally stood elsewhere; because the growing forest blocked the views, it was moved to its present spot about 62 m from the 589 m summit in 2016 and partly renovated. It is the 8th stop of the educational trail of Professor Rudolf Haša, which begins and ends in Kunovice.
