The old tower has been a popular destination for cyclists and hikers for over 125 years. When the weather is good, you can enjoy a great view as far as Göttingen and take a short break. In the mountain restaurant you get small meals - from the classic snack to soup, the little hunger is satisfied here.

Opening hours:
April to October from Wednesday to Sunday between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m.,
November to March, Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The Sommermann House, named after one of the last owners, is one of the most important half-timbered buildings in the town of Witzenhausen and enjoys even supra-regional importance due to its almost original structure. The building dates back to 1511 and is considered the best-preserved Gothic half-timbered building in Hesse. The most striking feature is the original round bay window. Extensive renovations were carried out in 1986-88. Today, the city library is housed in the representative house. fachwerk.de/media/witzenhausen-sommermannsche-haus.33712
