Lookout Point

Ruta-peregrino-hhf-2673_large

The HHF lookout point is designed to be an additional loop in the pilgrim`s path. Its round shape was developed as a formal anticipation of the people`s movement through the platform, going up to enjoy the great outlook in the surrounding countryside.

The asymmetric arched openings provide access to an open hall which is covered by the platform above. The inner walls are a shifted repetition of the primary facade in four tangential circles between which the two staircases define a route up to the platform and back down. The only exception to the curved shape is a brick wall with a cross-shaped opening in the most protected part of the building serving as an intimate room for resting and prayer.
