“You won't find a viewing tower here in the Kohlbachtal near the Lambrecht Nature Friends House. Instead, there used to be a room for carpenters on the site of the current Ritterstein. The wood used to build the Venningen church tower [Cath. Church of St. Georg] supposedly comes from the forest area there, hence the inscription “Venninger Tower” in the Ritterstein (Eitelmann 2005, p. 75).”
