It is only a few stairs, or a very short elevator ride, to the Central Outside Gallery (Mittlerer Aussenrundgang) — the highest level reachable by elevator. From here. it is possible to see some of the large knights (13 m tall and made of 47 granite blocks each) but these are better seen from further away from the monument. Those unable or unwilling to take the narrow stairs to the top of the memorial may take comfort from knowing that the views from here are hardly worse than at the top of the monument.
