The fabulous “Glueckaufturm” tower
April 1st, 2008 by htor
Yeah, I was home over the Easter holidays and we used the time to explore the “Erzgebirge” (ore mountains). Right next to my home town is an old uranium mine, and a huge artificial mountain (all the soil from the mine), actually the highest in a large area. They built a huge tower on this mountain (just for fun).

The tower!

it seems rather high if you’re on the top

Oelsnitz (the town close to my hometown)

Yes! We have wind energy!
