Teltschik Tower, Wooden observation tower in Wilhelmsfeld, Germany.
Teltschik Tower is a wooden observation tower in Wilhelmsfeld standing 41 meters tall with a viewing platform positioned about 36 meters above ground. Internal stairs lead visitors to this elevated platform, which commands views across the surrounding landscape.
Walter Teltschik built this tower to commemorate his origins in the Kuhländchen region near Brno, which was historically part of the Sudetenland. The structure thus represents a personal connection to Central European history.
The tower functions as a meeting place for people from the area and displays information panels about the plants and animals of Baden-Württemberg. You can encounter locals who visit regularly to enjoy the views and fresh air.
Visitors can enjoy views from multiple levels, with the main platform reached by an internal staircase. Be prepared for wet conditions and bring weather-appropriate clothing if you plan to spend time on the outdoor viewing platform.
The wooden construction was deliberately chosen to blend naturally with the forest landscape of the Schriesheimer Kopf area rather than stand out as an imposing structure. This material decision makes the tower feel like a natural extension of its surroundings.
