The Haustenbeck tower is located in the Senne, in the immediate vicinity of Oesterholz-Haustenbeck, and was built in 1940/41 as a historical observation tower. It originally served military purposes and was part of the infrastructural measures taken during the Second World War in connection with the nearby Senne military training area. Due to its elevated position, the tower offered a wide view over the area and thus fulfilled its function as a strategic observation point. Today, the Haustenbeck Tower is a silent witness to this era and a reminder of the military use of the Senne in the first half of the 20th century.
