Jubilee tower

When the sun is reflected in the Neckar and the quarry ponds at midday and the Alb emerges from the haze over the foreland, the landscape is magical - even today, although the area around the tower is almost completely built over. Nevertheless, you still have a beautiful view of the Neckar valley. Further in the distance, individual mountains can be seen on the Albtrauf. The Teck dominates, rising majestically as a steep cone 14 km away. To the east are Breitenstein, Limburg, Aichelberg and above it the Boßler, the steeply rising Fuchseck, Wasserberg, and beyond the Fils then Hohenstein, Messelberg and Kaltes Feld. Upstream are the three imperial mountains Hohenstaufen, Rechberg and Stuifen. To the west of the Teck, the familiar sequence can be seen: Baßgeige, Hohenneuffen, Jusi and Hörnle, Achalm, Roßberg, Dreifürstenstein, Hohenzollern and - only on very clear days - the Plettenberg with its telecommunications tower.
