To climb the 30-meter-high observation tower, you need half a franc. Only then can the revolving door be opened. It offers a magnificent 360° panorama of the heights of the Swiss Jura and the Black Forest. The "Turmwirtschaft Aussichtsturm" (Tower Restaurant) is generally open on weekends and public holidays.
