Baum Mitten in der Welt Observation Tower
Highlight • Viewpoint
The name referred to this widely visible tree and is now used for the since 1911 there existing inn.
For the exact measurement and mapping of Austria-Hungary, the military geographic institute established in 1817 five coordinate systems with clearly visible or culturally significant survey points as their respective zero points. For Lower Austria and West Hungary this was the South Tower of the Viennese Stefansdoms, for Upper Austria and Salzburg the Gusterberg. He met both criteria, because the nearby Benedictine Abbey Kremsmünster was (and is) the cultural center of the Traunviertel. Also offered the observatory of the convent, the Mathematical Tower, ideal conditions for the required astro-geodetic work.
For use as a fundamental point, accurate latitude and azimuth measurement was performed in 1817. The astronomical latitude resulted with 48 ° 02 '18.47 ", as the azimuth (about 187 °) that was chosen to the Great Priel, which is the highest mountain of the Dead Mountains with 2,515 m .. The geographical longitude, however, was determined by the Stiftsobservator the observatory Kremsmünster and At the time, it was not possible to measure them directly on the spot, because only telegraphy (and today the time signal radio) made this possible.

Gusterberg Viewpoint and Tree in the Middle of the World
Highlight • Viewpoint
The name Gusterberg viewing platform also refers to the famous tree in the middle of the world that was planted at the location of the zero point. The tree was originally a centuries-old linden tree that had to be felled in 1929 due to a lightning strike. As a precaution, a new linden tree was planted nearby in 1916, which now has a trunk circumference of almost 3 meters. The tree in the middle of the world is also known in literature, as it was described by the Upper Austrian poet Adalbert Stifter in his novel Der Nachsommer.
In addition to the tree in the middle of the world, there is also an inn with the same name that has existed there since 1911. There you can refresh yourself after a hike or bike ride and enjoy the view. The Gusterberg viewing platform is therefore an ideal place for nature and culture lovers who want to take a trip to the Wels region.
