Hohe Warte Observation Tower, Wooden observation tower in Hohenwart, Germany.
The 40-meter tall Hohe Warte Observation Tower rises between the Nagold and Würm valleys, offering panoramic views across the Northern Black Forest region.
Constructed in 2002, this observation tower maintained its status as the highest wooden structure in the Northern Black Forest until the Himmelsglück tower opened in 2021.
The tower provides residents and tourists of Baden-Württemberg with a gathering point to observe nature and photograph the surrounding German landscapes.
Visitors need to climb 192 steps to reach the observation platform, as the structure does not include an elevator or accessibility accommodations.
The tower shares identical architectural features with the Teltschikturm in Wilhelmsfeld, both designed by Heidelberg architect Robert Teltschik using larch wood materials.
