 museum, interesting place, lookout tower

The former naval direction-finding tower was built in brick in 1927 and was used to observe radio traffic in the southern Baltic Sea until the end of the Second World War. By 1945 at the latest, the technical equipment in the direction-finding tower had been removed or destroyed and the tower fell into ruin, although it was temporarily used as an antenna carrier. In 1996, it was extensively renovated.
