Hagberg Tower, Wooden observation tower in Horlachen, Germany
The Hagberg Tower rises 23 meters above the ground on a reinforced concrete base, featuring a pagoda-like crown structure at its summit.
The initial tower from 1901 required replacement before World War I, and during the war years, the Luftwaffe used it as an observation station.
The Schwäbischer Albverein maintains this tower as part of their commitment to preserving recreational structures in the Swabian-Franconian forest region.
Visitors can access the tower from Easter through October on Sundays and holidays, with a parking area located 500 meters from the structure.
From the observation platforms, people can see distant cities including Stuttgart, Heilbronn, Crailsheim, and Aalen on clear weather days.
