Panoramic Tour of Chaumont
Panoramic Tour of Chaumont, Observation tower in Chaumont, Switzerland.
The concrete structure rises 20 meters above ground level, offering a commanding view over Lake Neuchâtel and the surrounding Alpine mountains.
Engineers Arthur Studer and architect Arthur Bura designed and constructed this observation platform in 1912, incorporating modern concrete building techniques.
The tower maintains its status as a Class B Swiss cultural property, representing the architectural achievements of the early twentieth century.
Visitors can access the tower through a steel framework ramp and climb 56 steps to reach the observation platform for one Swiss franc.
From the viewing platform, observers can see three lakes and multiple Alpine peaks, including Eiger, Mönch, Jungfrau, and Mont Blanc.
