Aussichtsturm Kuckholzklippe, Steel observation tower in Göttingen district, Germany.
The Kuckholzklippe tower rises 15 meters high with 75 steps leading to two observation platforms offering views of the Upper Harz region.
Members of multiple Harzklub branches initiated the construction of this steel skeleton tower in 1897, with building costs reaching 2625 marks.
The name originates from Kuhkolk, a water source where mountain cows gathered, which transformed through language evolution into Kuckholz.
The tower stands at 565 meters elevation and connects to numerous hiking trails from Lerbach village and the Prinzenteich parking area.
Visitors can spot the Brocken mountain range, Eichsfeld region, and Göttingen mountains from the platform that accommodates 90 people.
