The design approach for the “Thousand-Meter Tower” on the Kniebis is guided by the structure of a pine cone, whose distinctive shape creates a clear reference to the region. Its distinctive visual identity makes it suitable as a tourist destination, allowing visitors to experience the region’s vegetative qualities. The tower itself becomes a visual and spatial experience. It achieves this with a strong long-distance effect and its impressive interior quality. The thousand-meter platform “crowns” the overall experience as the highlight of the visit to the Kniebis.
