Adalbert Stifter Monument and view of Lake Plöckenstein

Highlight • Monument

On a steep path you make your way up to the Stifter Obelisk - it was built in honor of the poet Adalbert Stifter, who was very influential in the Bohemian Forest. The distant view and the view of the "Eye of God", the Plöckensteinersee, are simply awesome!
