Ottoshöhe, Wooden observation tower in Melle, Germany.

The 28.5-meter high wooden tower stands on the southern slope of the Meller Mountains, offering a viewing platform at 24.3 meters above ground level.

The current structure, built in 2008, represents the fourth tower at this location, following previous constructions from 1895, 1924, and 1967.

The tower construction project involved local community organizations, with the Melle-Mitte Beautification and Traffic Association leading the development under Hermann Kuipers' direction.

Visitors can access the tower via forest paths from the hiking parking lot on 'Auf den Vieren' road, with multiple trail options available.

From the observation deck, the view extends over 20 kilometers, encompassing cities like Osnabrück, Bielefeld, and Porta Westfalica on clear days.
