Steinenberg Tower, Steel observation tower in Tübingen, Germany.

The Steinenberg Tower rises 12 meters in height, featuring a steel framework construction at an elevation of 492 meters above sea level.

Edmund Friedrich Autenrieth designed this observation tower in 1898, commissioned by the Tübingen Beautification Association for 2,600 marks including land acquisition.

The tower stands as a symbol of municipal development, maintained through local initiatives including the comprehensive renovation by Tübingen Cultural Foundation in 1998.

Visitors can access the tower via footpaths from Schnarrenbergstraße or through the forest paths near the BG-Unfallklinik bus stop, 600 meters away.

The viewing platform at 504 meters elevation provides winter views of Wurmlinger Chapel, the Swabian Jura, and the Black Forest mountain ranges.
