View of St. Blasien Cathedral

Highlight • Viewpoint

The huge dome stands out effortlessly from everything else in the valley - it looks great even after the first few meters of ascent.

A fantastic view of St. Blasien and all the surrounding valleys. The plateau is surrounded by a few fir trees, otherwise it is very free and there is even a possibility for rest.

A short detour from the path to Luisenruhe is worthwhile: you have a beautiful view of St.Blasien and the impressive cathedral.

Lehenkopf Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

Not far from St. Blasien, the Lehenkopfturm offers a magnificent panoramic view of the entire surrounding landscape.

The tower was built in a closed wooden construction and the wide wooden staircase inside has two intermediate floors. This ensures that even people who are afraid of heights can finally climb such a tower and enjoy the view. So almost no risk of dizziness! Due to the closed construction, the view can only be seen through barred windows. There are several benches around the tower for rest and sunbathing.

October 14, 2021,🇩🇪 St. Blasien: Dom und Lehenkopfturm
Nice little introductory round to my Black Forest vacation. The cathedral in St. Blasien is really impressive with its huge dome and the classical interior design. I was not so enthusiastic about the Lehenkopfturm. It is more of a castle tower than a classic lookout tower and only offers four rather small, barred windows at the top. The view was …
