About 2 km northwest of the summit is a small chapel at 992 m , the so-called Radstadtkapelle, to which a way of the cross leads up.

Construction of the observation tower began in spring 2019. Construction was completed at the end of September, and the tower should be completely finished in early May 2020 and then inaugurated. Since the construction of the tower, the Mondseeland has a new landmark .
