Hesse (/ˈhɛsə/) or Hessia (German: Hessen [ˈhɛsn̩], Hessian dialect: Hesse [ˈhɛzə]) is a federal state (Land) of the Federal Republic of Germany, with just over six million inhabitants. The state capital is Wiesbaden; the largest city is Frankfurt am Main. Until the unification of Germany, the territory of Hesse was occupied by the Grand Duchy of Hesse, the Duchy of Nassau, the free city of Frankfurt and the Electorate of Hesse, known also as Hesse-Cassel. Due to divisions after World War II, the modern federal state does not cover the entire cultural region of Hesse, which includes both the State of Hesse and the area known as Rhenish Hesse (Rheinhessen) in the neighbouring state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

Although the climb up the mountain is quite exhausting as is the walk up tower, it is definitely worth it. The place offers spectacular views all over the state of Hesse (if weather permits). No entrance fee required.

What were you expecting? A monument. It has local traffic crossing both ways in proximity to the footpath. The best part as has been said here by other reviewers, ie the view looking back into town towards the cathedral and the Statue of St John Patron Saint.
