Английская Википедия:Idarkopf Tower
Idarkopf Tower (Шаблон:Lang-de), also known as Idarkopf Observation Tower (Шаблон:Lang-de) for long, is a wooden German lattice observation tower on the summit of Mt. Idarkopf in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. The observation tower on the Шаблон:Convert[1] mountain of Idarkopf has a total height of Шаблон:Convert.[2][3] Built in 1980, the tower was constructed according to a certain kind of specialized wooden frame and was designed through triangular sketch. Staircases are uncountable because of the vast number of steps. The roof, which contains the observation deck, is considered the highest accessible point in the whole area, providing a unique view of the town nearby.[4][2][5]
The hybrid construction made of wood and steel was erected in 2022 in place of the older wooden tower that was severely damaged by fire in October 2018 and demolished in February 2022. The opening of the new tower took place in December 2022.
History
The Idarkopf Tower's construction was both commenced and finished in 1980, specifically built for observation on top of the Idarkopf mountain. Sources prove that the Idarkopf Tower replaced an older tower, used during both first and second world wars as an observation tower and as a watchtower for the German artillery.[4]
Geography
The Idarkopf Tower stands on the summit of the Шаблон:Convert mountain of Idarkopf, a tall mountain included in the low mountain range of the Hunsrück in Idar Forest, which in turn lies in the municipalities of Morbach, Rhaunen, Idar-Oberstein and Kempfeld, which are all in the districts (kreis) of Bernkastel-Wittlich, Birkenfeld, and Trier-Saarburg, all located in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate, in Germany.[4][2][3][5][6]
