A l'extrémité ouest de l'ile dans un environnement sauvage, cette tour d'observation de cinq étage a été construite par les Allemands en 1942. Une architecture très étrange qui évoque une construction de film de science-fiction. Mérite un détour car le paysage alentours est intéressant et cette forme plantée là interpelle. C'est aussi l'occasion d'emprunter ces petites routes qui serpentent dans les coins les plus sauvages de l'ile. Attention, la tour est très rarement ouverte si vous voulez visiter l'intérieur.
