From the Königswarte observation tower, the view extends far beyond the border to Bratislava. Especially in clear weather, the striking high-rises and the silhouette of the Slovak capital are clearly recognizable.

The Königswarte listening station is one of Austria's most mysterious facilities. The station is operated by the Austrian Federal Bureau for Intelligence and Security and has been associated for years with reports of international intelligence cooperation, including with US services such as the NSA. The distinctive antenna installations and the secluded location near the border give the place a special aura to this day.
