Not too many tourists, it's a good time to stroll through the village.

A stunning view of the Rhine plain and the Kaiserstuhl hills, well worth seeing. The tower can be easily climbed via a spiral staircase; the ascent is very narrow via a stone staircase inside the tower.

From here, you have a truly magnificent view and can reward yourself with a light meal at the summit restaurant. Unfortunately, the hotel at the summit is currently closed. (For about a year.) As of September 2025
