Bayernturm Viewing Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

If you are on the Bayern Tower you can see far into Thuringia and Franconia. Steigerwald, Thuringian Forest or the Rhön can be seen. The Equal Mountains rise up as striking mountains, but the smaller ones are hidden, the Veste Coburg, the Veste Heldburg, the Straufhain, the Bleßberg or the Dolmar near Meiningen. It is really worth climbing the many steps.

Memorial at the Rieth/Zimmerau border crossing

Highlight • Monument

As many as 434 border towers stood at the German-German border. One of them very close to this memorial. He was on the western side and served to get an insight into the hinterland of the GDR border area. This memorial site commemorates this epoch of German-German history with a memorial stone and a piece of border fence.
