Pyramidenkogel Tower, Wooden observation tower in Keutschach am See, Austria

The 100-meter tower features 16 larch supports arranged in an elliptical pattern, reinforced with 80 diagonal steel braces rising above Lake Wörthersee.

Opened in 2013, the structure replaced a previous concrete tower from 1968, marking a shift toward sustainable architectural design in the Carinthia region.

The tower serves as a gathering point for regional events, connecting visitors to Carinthian traditions while offering views of the surrounding Alpine landscape.

Visitors can choose between taking the panoramic elevator that fits 20 people or climbing 441 wooden steps to reach the observation platforms.

The structure includes Europe's highest indoor slide, extending 120 meters in length, allowing visitors to descend at speeds of 25 kilometers per hour.
