The tower stands on the foundation of the keep of Randenburg Castle, of which only a few remnants are still visible above ground. The view from the tower is breathtaking! There are now several information panels about the castle. The moat is also still clearly visible. On the other side of the moat, there is a large rest area which appears to be well-maintained and popular during the season.
