Taubenberg Observation Tower, Observation tower in Warngau, Germany.

The Taubenberg Observation Tower is a 30-meter-high covered tower built entirely of tuff stone, standing at 892 m on the Taubenberg about 300 meters east of the summit in the municipality of Warngau. Two parallel, offset spiral staircases lead up through the structure. Above the entrance portal is a relief of the Münchner Kindl.

Munich had this tower built between 1910 and 1911 as a replacement for an older wooden structure. The construction was part of the city's expansion of its water supply system.

Above the entrance portal visitors can see the Münchner Kindl, the emblem of the city of Munich, which owned the tower and charged admission in its early years. The key is still borrowed against a deposit from the Berggasthof Taubenberg during its opening hours.

To enter the tower, you need to pick up a key from the nearby inn with a deposit. Access is seasonal and not available during winter months.

The tower was originally planned as the finishing structure of Munich's Kaltenbach spring water capture, but the valley ground could not support it, so the Reisach water castle was built there instead. The Munich magistrate then decided in late 1908 to replace the dilapidated wooden tower with this monumental building. The tuff stone was delivered via the Holzkirchen–Schliersee railway and hauled from Unterthalham station by horse-drawn carts to the 878-meter site.
