These TowersSurely they arouse mixed feelings but they've been part of the Sudetic landscape for over a century now.

Re: These TowersMan-made but eagerly climbed by many a nature lover (via the stairs, not the sheer walls outside :))

Re: These TowersIt's the most beautiful tower in the Sudetes I know ! (I also like the wooden one of Czarna Gora)
If you wanted the fact it was built by germans, I think no one really cares nowadays. It's there, it was erected by mountain lovers and that's all !

Re: These TowersThe problem isn't who erected it but whether or not anything should be built on mountain tops. If you ask me, it depends on which mountains. In the Sudetes, I find most of the towers OK. But just try and put something like this on, say, Babia Góra- BTW You've forgotten the one on Biskupia Kopa (and the famous three-mile downhill ride :))

Re: These TowersIn my opinion they are OK when the top is under the tree line and they allow the view over ! That's why one over Babia Gora cannot be :)
Thanks for Biskupia Kopa, I added it to my "to cycle" list !
Have you seen my last autumn pics in Gory Bardzkie ?

Re: Much-much nicerSo all of us seem to agree such towers are welcome in some mountainous areas (although some should be replaced by nicer constructions).

Re: Much-much nicerI wonder what the Czechs would say.:) Anyway, Eric, you'll soon have enough pix of these towers (or buildings? Sniezka?) topping the Sudetic tops to create an album, which seems a must as far as the Sudetes are concerned.

Re: Much-much nicerwhy not a towers album, not only of the Sudetes ? like for example the cairns album I made !

Re: Much-much nicerMight be a good idea. Peter's Borzsony tower would not feel lonely:)
