Grünten (also, Watcher of the Allgäu) is a mountain of Bavaria, Germany. On the summit is a Gebirgsjäger monument, dedicated to the German mountain troopers killed in action. Not far from there, on the lower crest, is a radio tower of the Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation. The cable car connecting the village of Rettenberg and the radio tower was closed to the public in 2014 and is now only used to transport material or members of staff up to the radio tower.
