FYI, the discovery tower is accessible all the way to the top (photo attached), but closed to climbing. As of August 2025, I had a fantastic view from up here. The Dragon's Tail Bridge is currently undergoing renovations after 18 years, expected to last until the end of November 2025, so it's closed. It's possible to walk through the bottom.

The Bismarck Tower's architectural design is similar to those in Plauen and Markneukirchen. The upper part of the tower serves as an observation deck and was reopened in 1992. On a clear day, visitors can enjoy a wonderful view all the way to the Monument to the Battle of the Nations in Leipzig and the Ore Mountains.

Was rebuilt after the Elster flood in 2013 because the old bridge was destroyed by the flood.
