It’s visually stunning (and has great views) and really easy to access if you have €8. I believe it’s only open on weekends, and the only problem I had was that it was crowded and a little tough to get a photo without people in it. But still totally worth the visit!

It was a great place to work. There was a ski lift not far from our site that we took advantage of in the winter.
One incident sticks out in my mind. I was working the night shift when we were shocked by gun fire. We could see muzzle flashes from the guard towers at the NSA site up the hill. We grabbed our WW2 carbines (we were airman after all), and crawled under our communications van. A bit later we saw some figures approaching our site. We were prepared to fire when one of the figures shouted to us in English the they were part of a training exercise. They had forgotten to tell us about the exercise.

Had a security clearance, so he couldn’t talk about it. If he had been able to, I guess he would have told stories about what the Ruskies had for breakfast that morning.

Not sure the high tower will ever open again (?) I went there in 2015 or something and the echo was amazing. Also the paintings. Every time I go it feels more touristic, but I love the golf balls so I can’t resist. Also many new paintings, miss the old astronaut with the 3D balloon. Go through the beautiful forest on a day when you are too tired to do some hard-core urbex. 🙃

That’s true, and there’s certainly no intention to minimize the impact it had on anyone. The point was that it didn’t end in nuclear annihilation, which was the fear at the time.
