The ascent to the top of the tower leads first via a narrow spiral staircase, then up a solid steel staircase to the tower platform. Caution! The view from the top of the tower is limited. The high surrounding wall and the exit of the stairwell prevent a clear 360° view. Kids, in particular, will miss out on this and will probably be disappointed.

Here you've reached the Bözberg Pass! Steep climbs from both sides as you drive up the road. The pass was already an important connecting route between the Fricktahl and Aaretal valleys in Roman times.
