This unique 33-metre-high fire observation tower has been operating since 1974. Today, it is the only fire lookout tower in Latvia with sliced wood shingles. The tower is currently being used by the State Forest Service to provide fire safety functions by early detection of fires. There is also the largest elm stand in Latvia near the tower. The Vērene fire lookout tower can only be viewed from the outside.
