Viewpoints in Germany

The platform on the Kurtscheider old water tower is the highest vantage point in the Neuwied district. From the water tower there is an excellent view over large parts of the Middle Rhine area, the Siebengebirge, the Westerwald and also into the Hunsrück and the Eifel.

Overview

Traditionell steht eine Kirche in der Mitte eines Dorfes. Wie hier in Burbach, wo der Glockenturm der Ev. Kirche noch von einem Vorgängergebäude aus dem späten Mittelalter stammt.

Der Pfad entlang der Weidentore führt dich zur wilden Heller, die von der Gemeinde Burbach renaturiert wurde.

The Barbara Tower - an imposing winding tower as a lookout tower Once you have climbed to the viewing platform, you will be rewarded with a breathtaking view over the most beautiful part of the Westerwald.

The Luitpold Tower stands on the 610 meter high Weißenberg, which belongs to the district of Merzalben. From the 30 meter high tower, whose viewing terrace can be reached via 184 steps and which also offers several cozy resting places, you can enjoy a grandiose 360​​° panorama view over the Palatinate Forest and - with good visibility - even as far as the Rhine plain, across to neighboring Alsace Lorraine and the Vosges. It is located directly on the well-known long-distance hiking trail Palatinate Forest Path and can be reached from the L496 between Johanniskreuz and Leimen/Pfalz via a narrow forest road (signposted Hermersbergerhof). Free parking is available a little below the tower.

In den Jahren 2001 und 2002 fanden in Marsberg mehrere Bildhauer-Symposien statt, bei den Künstler innerhalb von wenigen Tagen jeweils verschiedene Skulpturen aus verschiedenen Materialien (Stein, Holz und Metall) erschufen. Die Künstler arbeiteten auf öffentlichen Plätzen und konnten von Besuchern bei der Arbeit beobachtet werden.
