Alheimer

Alheimer is a mountain summit in the Stölzinger Hills with steep slopes covered in dense forest throughout. A 22-meter observation tower stands at the peak and serves as a focal point for visitors.

The observation tower was built in the 20th century and marks a period of growing mountain recreation in the region. The structure contains a memorial to soldiers from both World Wars.

The summit attracts regular hikers who share a passion for mountain walks and outdoor exploration. This tradition of visiting the heights has deep roots in the local community.

Multiple marked trails lead to the summit and are accessible in most weather conditions. The tower is open during daylight hours when visibility is good, providing shelter from rain.

On clear days, visitors from the tower deck can spot several famous mountains and castles visible in the distance. These distant views toward Wartburg, Meißner, and other landmarks make this vantage point particularly rewarding during good weather.
