Raiffeisen Tower, Wooden observation tower in Heupelzen, Germany.
The 34-meter-tall wooden Raiffeisen Tower rises above the landscape of Heupelzen, offering panoramic views of Westerwald and the surrounding regions.
Built in 1990, the tower bears the name of Friedrich Wilhelm Raiffeisen, a German social reformer who pioneered cooperative banking in rural areas during the 19th century.
The tower serves as a central point for local outdoor activities, connecting visitors to the natural heritage of the Rhineland-Palatinate region through hiking trails.
The observation platform remains open every day of the week and provides clear views of notable landmarks, including Köppelturm and the Salzburger Kopf in Westerwald.
From its vantage point, visitors can see the Hohe Acht mountain peak in the Eifel region, located 57 kilometers away at 747 meters above sea level.
