Unfortunately, it is almost no longer accessible (logs were deliberately deposited here) and the ascent is blocked.

In 1983, the Papstwarte near Doberndorf was opened. It was built on the occasion of the visit of Pope John Paul II. With a total of 119 steps, you reach a height of 24 meters - the tower itself is located at an altitude of 497 meters above sea level. It was designed by Robert Krapfenbauer, who was born in Rodingersdorf in 1923. Doberndorf belonged to Rodingersdorf until 1920 and the tower can be found in the middle of the forest about halfway between Doberndorf and Rodingersdorf - access by car is possible. The tower is not accessible as of September 2024. It is privately owned and cordoned off. It is currently not possible to say whether and when it will be open to the public again.
