“The fire watch tower was further developed in the GDR. Master builder Marusch from Hoyerswerda built the Hoyerswerda type fire tower, which is still typical today, out of concrete and steel.
In the pulpit there was a disc with a 360 ° division and a bearing device.
When a fire was reported from two neighboring towers, the location of the fire could be localized very precisely by means of a cross bearing.
With the help of these observation towers, it was possible to constantly observe the forests in times of greatest fire risk.
This was the only way to prevent one or the other major fire.


Nowadays these fire watch towers are rarely occupied by people, because technology has also found its way here.
Cameras, originally developed for space research, now turn their 360 ° laps and constantly send new images to the forest fire control centers spread across the districts.
Trained staff sit there and evaluate the images.
And here, too, the old principle of cross bearing is used in order to pass on the location of the fire as precisely as possible to the control centers and ultimately to the emergency services. "

The best place to go tobogganing in the winter months is directly behind the observation tower. Absolutely recommended.

Wehlaberg Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The wooden observation tower on the Wehlaberg is 28 meters high and offers a wide view over the Krausnicker Mountains and the heath lakes extending to the north. To the west is the hall of the Tropical Islands. When visibility is good, the Berlin television tower can be seen in the north.

View over the Spreewald

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Spreewald in Lower Lusatia is a unique natural landscape southeast of Berlin. A network of over 400 kilometers of streams, canals, and traditional water-lifting houses shapes the scenery here: picturesque waterways, green meadows, reeds, and colorfully woven house fronts.

The region is best explored by punt, kayak, or bike, as this opens up perspectives on silently flowing streams, species-rich riverside meadows, and hidden villages. The local cuisine, centered around pickled cucumbers and hearty home-style cooking, complements the cultural experience: Spreewald cucumbers, mustard, herbal teas, and regional specialties invite you to linger.

September 7, 2025,Auf der Suche nach dem Blutmond übern Wehlaberg
Sunday evening, I quickly grabbed my camera and hiked up Wehlaberg to better see and photograph the rising blood moon. Once I reached the top of the tower, I encountered the "photographer's classic"... No memory card in my camera, and no spare card with me. So, I only took cell phone pictures. As a result, there were more sunset photos …
