    Nice view down to Karlsruhe. There are various ways to get to the Turmberg, Hexenstäffele, mountain railway and various other ways. The tower was locked today. I was there shortly after 4 p.m. and then had to read that the tower is only open until 4 p.m. But I suspect that the tower is completely closed at the moment.

    The Turmberg is the local mountain of the former residence town of Durlach in Baden. It is 256 meters high and the northwesternmost peak of the Black Forest at the transition between the low mountain range and the Kraichgau hilly landscape.
    Accessible with the Turmbergbahn. The Turmbergbahn has been going up the mountain since 1888. It is the oldest funicular in Germany still in operation. Alternatively, the mountain can be reached via the "Hexenstäffele", a stairway that leads in 528 steps on a direct path from Durlach to the Turmberg.

    A short, steep climb. The slight effort is rewarded with a magnificent view over Karlsruhe and the Rhine plain.
