Von-der-Heydt-Turm

4 Davide Nolè - 4 years ago

Nice place, with a nice park around. Certainly one of the most impressive towers in Wuppertal, however the space around it is small and there's not that much room for just sitting there.
The woods around it make it better to spend some time walking and talking, walking dogs, and playing with kids, but if you're looking for something more similar to a playground of sorts I wouldn't recommend it.
Still worth the climb to see the architecture.

Beautiful place, but sadly the lookout tower was closed.

Interesting tower. Unfortunately it seems to be locked to the public though perhaps it is possible to take a guided tour. It seems it would be quite beautiful from the inside with a very good view over Wuppertal.

"Rapunzelturm"

(Translated by Google) Visually a very beautiful and above all interesting tower.
Unfortunately this is currently closed.

There you can go for a walk in the forest.

A variant for walking would be e.g .:
At the beginning of the Samba race, through / over the Wuppertal Zoo, then sharp left up towards the forest, from there to the tower and down again on the other side.

That would keep you busy for at least 1 hour and with a bit of luck you might see the lions and a few other animals from the zoo.

(Original)
Optisch ein sehr schöner und vorallem interessanter Turm.
Leider ist dieser aktuell geschlossen.

Man kann dort in dem Wald gut spazieren gehen.

Eine Variante zum spazieren wäre z.B.:
Am Beginn der Sambatrasse, durch/über den Wuppertaler Zoo, danach scharf links hoch Richtung Wald, von dort zum Turm und auf der anderen Seite wieder runter.

Damit wäre man mind. 1 Stündchen beschäftigt und mit etwas Glück bekommt man die Löwen und ein paar andere Tiere vom Zoo dabei zu sehen.
