Bachtel Tower is a lattice tower whose observation deck, 30 metres above the ground, is accessible by a stairway. It was built as replacement for a smaller observation tower on the site.
On the observation deck of Bachtel Tower there is an illustration with the names of the mountains of the Alps visible. This illustration was designed by Paul Thalmann from Wernetshausen.
