On the southern side of the stone base of the tower are three panels with: an Iron Cross with the coat of arms of Schleswig-Holstein and the dates 1848 and 1849 (in memory of the First Schleswig War) a portrait relief of Emperor William I an Iron Cross with a "W" and the date 1870 (in memory of the Franco-Prussian War)From the top of the tower are views over the town of Plön and all of the surrounding countryside with its lakes.

The Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology's Plön Evolution Path ("Plöner Evolutionspfad", German pronunciation: [ˈpløːnɐ evoluˈt͡si̯oːns pfaːt]) is an educational public works project that presents the history and evolution of life on Earth. It is one of a number of Evolution Paths in Germany. Located in Plön, Germany, the Evolution Path is composed of 11 dual-language English/German stations extending around the Großer Plöner See. The path extends 1.3 km in total, starting at the Plön Market Bridge (Schiffsanlegestelle Plön) that also serves as the start of the Plön Planet Walk, and makes its way to the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology. From beginning to end, the Evolution Path describes events during evolutionary history, beginning with the origin of life (3.8 million years ago) up until the evolution of man (5 million years ago). The distance between each station is proportional to the time interval between the corresponding evolutionary periods described at that station. The exhibition was officially inaugurated on the 14th of September, 2018, in celebration of the 70th anniversary of the Max Planck Society.

Plön Castle (German: Plöner Schloss) in Plön is one of the largest castles in the north German state of Schleswig-Holstein and the only one located on a hill. The former Residenz of the Dukes of Schleswig-Holstein-Plön was built in the 17th century during the Thirty Years War and has had a colourful history in which it has, for example, been a school for military cadets and also a boarding school. The castle ended the twentieth century as a possession of the state of Schleswig-Holstein, but they could not fund its renovation and so it had to be sold again. Since January 2002 it has belonged to the Fielmann Akademie Schloss Plön and, after extensive conversion, serves as a training and qualification centre for a branch of optometry. After being inaccessible to the general public for many years when it was a boarding school, its new owners have opened it to a limited extent to visitors.
