Parnaß Tower
Highlight • Viewpoint
In 1975 the tower was closed for security reasons. After a true-to-factory renovation by the state of Schleswig-Holstein and the city of Plön, it was reopened to the public on July 5, 1985.
Depending on the weather, the Parnassos observation tower is usually open from Easter to the end of October daily from 9:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Entry is free. Plön and the surrounding lake landscape can be seen from the tower's viewing platform.
On the south side of the tower base there is a memorial for those who fell in the wars from 1848 to 1851 and 1870 to 1871. There are three flat, arched niches with:
an iron cross with the coat of arms of Schleswig-Holstein and the dates 1848 and 1849 (in memory of the Schleswig-Holstein war) and the text: "Up forever ungedeelt!"
a medallion of Kaiser Wilhelm I and the text "To the honorable memory / of those who fell in the battles of 1848-1851 and 1870-1871 / warriors of the Plön district".
an iron cross with a crown, a "W" (for Wilhelm I) and the year 1870 (in memory of the Franco-German War) and the text: "It should be the whole of Germany!"

Plön Town Hall
Highlight • Monument
The current town hall was built between 1816 and 1818 on the old market square according to plans by the renowned architect Christian Frederik Hansen. Previously, a 13th-century town hall building stood on this site, which the last Duke of Plön, Duke Friedrich Carl, had demolished and replaced with a new one in 1746.
The Goose Girl Fountain, made of shell limestone by Bernhard Butzke, dates from 1922. The Goose Girl is one of Plön's landmarks and was a gift to their hometown from the Müller brothers, who had become wealthy abroad.
