Rathmannsdorf observation tower

Short facts

Futuristic observation tower with panoramic view

The 15-metre-high viewing tower was built in 2007 and is the only barrier-free one in Germany. The viewing platform can be reached on foot via 82 steps or conveniently by lift. Once at the top, there is an unforgettable panoramic view of almost all the famous rock massifs of Saxon Switzerland (Elbe Sandstone Mountains) and parts of Bohemian Switzerland. There is a water treading pool and a water arm pool at the foot of the tower.
