From the top you have a good view of the Arnsberg Forest and the Rothaargebirge. You can even see the Soester Börde. However, there are 204 steps to climb to the top.

These two gnarled figures symbolized the centuries-old friendship between Meschede-Eversberg and Warstein.

The wooden figures, carved from a 300-year-old oak tree, were officially unveiled to the public on May 1, 2010. 🤗

May 5, 2024,Vom Parklplatz Stimmstamm rüber zum Lörmecketurm
After celebrating a wedding last night, we went for a little walk today, as we were in the area anyway. So we were finally able to climb the Lörmecke Tower and marvel at the magnificent view.
From there we went over the Warsteiner Kopf, which is an unspectacular little peak, past Eversbgerg and back to Stimmstamm.

This hike over the Lörmecke Tower offers really beautiful and wide views. The tower itself is a mixture of great architecture, art and mathematics. At first glance one recognizes the geometric shape of a translational paraboloid (factual knowledge for smartasses in wandering small talk).

From there, with a few bright dashes of dandelion and Ruprechtskraut, we went up to the Plackweg, an old trade route on which the Romans used to carry their goods through the Arnsberg Forest. There are …

The Lörmecke Tower in the Arnsberg Forest Nature Park is 35 meters high and offers a fantastic 360-degree panorama of the Sauerland region! After climbing the 204 steps, a fresh breeze blew around our noses, testing our fear of heights a bit!
We were also able to enjoy far-reaching views from the castle ruins of Eversberg, which have stood towering …
