🏛️ Lucas Cranach Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Lucas Cranach Tower is a 22 meter high lookout tower of the Frankenwaldverein near the Upper Franconian district town of Kronach. He is named after the German painter and graphic artist Lucas Cranach (1472 - 1553), who was born in Kronach. The observation deck of the tower is located 18 meters above the ground and can be reached via a spiral staircase with 88 steps.

This is an old road between Weißenbrunn and Kronach. As you walk, you'll feel and see the natural stone paved path, which becomes even more interesting further down. And with every meter you continue downhill, the paved path becomes more and more paved.

You're getting closer and closer to the upper edge of Weißenbrunn as you go downhill. Pay attention to the ground as you walk: In many places, you can still clearly see the old – sometimes even wide – grooves (see image section) left behind by the old carts. You might even hear the sound of hooves from days long gone... says HINTERINDIEN.DE
