Aussichtsturm Karlshöhe, Observation tower in Halver, Germany.

The brick tower rises 23.5 meters above ground level and features a viewing platform offering views across the Sauerland region.

Architect Gustav Mucke designed the tower in 1892, and construction company Brückmann from Halver completed the structure in 1893 for 5600 Marks.

The Sauerländische Gebirgsverein organized the tower's inauguration on July 10, 1893, marking its importance for regional outdoor activities.

Visitors need to climb 100 steps to reach the observation platform, which sits at an elevation of 438.5 meters above sea level.

Local citizens collected 100,000 euros in donations by 2017 to preserve this architectural heritage monument, leading to its complete renovation in 2020.
