Halaška, Observation tower on Kopřivná hill in Budišov nad Budišovkou, Czech Republic.

The steel structure reaches 30 meters in height and features a transparent plexiglass roof with seven observation levels connected by 153 steps.

The tower, completed in 2021, bears the name of František Ignác Kassián Halaška, a 19th-century physicist, astronomer, and educator from the region.

This observation point forms part of the Silesianka project, which connects various towers and viewpoints across the Czech-Polish border region.

Located 3.5 kilometers from Budišov nad Budišovkou center, visitors can reach the tower through marked hiking trails or forest paths suitable for cyclists.

The transparent roof design allows nighttime astronomical observations, reflecting the scientific interests of the tower's namesake.
