The lookout tower with a view of the picturesque Dyje Valley. According to the legend, in 1683, King Jan III Sobieski of Poland was following his troops crossing the river Dyje as He pulled out to help Vienna besieged by the Turks. In 1892, a wooden pavilion was built at this site by the Znojmo Section of the Austrian Tourist Club and it served until the end of the World War I. In 1922, the Association of German Tourists in cooperation with the Czech Tourists Club established a new gazebo near the place of the original pavilion, as we know it now.
