Dambergwarte, Observation tower on Damberg mountain in St. Ulrich bei Steyr, Austria.

Dambergwarte is a 36-metre wooden observation tower on the Damberg in the municipality of Sankt Ulrich bei Steyr, on the border with Garsten. It is owned by the city of Steyr and can hold up to 40 people at once. From the top it gives a wide panorama of the Pre-Alps and the Alpine foothills.

In 1869 the Alpine Club erected a 21-metre wooden tower on the Damberg, which was replaced by a new tower in 1888. The Verschönerungsverein took it over in 1921; the second structure was closed in 1932 and dismantled in 1934. Plans for today's 36-metre wooden tower were completed in 1971, and it opened on 1 October 1972 at a cost of about 800,000 schillings. The city of Steyr took ownership on 1 March 1983.

The tower is owned by the city of Steyr, although it stands on the territory of Sankt Ulrich bei Steyr, in the cadastral community of Unterwald near the border with Garsten. Its upkeep was long the task of a citizens' committee for rebuilding a viewing tower on the Damberg, which requested the 1983 transfer of ownership.

The tower is easiest to reach on foot from the center of St. Ulrich, where paths are clearly marked. The best time to visit is between spring and autumn when weather conditions are stable and the trails are dry.

The tower is owned by the city of Steyr even though it stands on the territory of Sankt Ulrich bei Steyr, on the border with Garsten. Ownership passed to Steyr on 1 March 1983 under a donation contract signed on 31 January 1983, at the request of the committee that had maintained the tower until then.
