morphology

The Gollwitzer Berg as part of the Karower Platte was created during the last, the Vistula cold period . It was formed by ice masses advancing into Central Europe from the northeast. The old moraine core of the mountain is said to be of Cold Age origin. The Gollwitzer Berg is the highest elevation of a larger compression moraine complex . The Karower Platte still traces the main ice edge of the Brandenburg phase with the Zauche . The Gollwitzer Berg was not formed in this, but in the first rear ice edge layer, the ice edge layer 1a, during a repeated advance of the glacier ice, which also includes the Zolchberge between Kirchmöser and Wusterwitz and the Kirchmöseraner Mühlenberg .

Life expectancy

The remains of a tower are on the Gollwitzer Berg. Count von Wartensleben had this built between 1847 and 1848 with a small hunting lodge. The building was called the lifeguard. After the hunting lodge fell into disrepair over the decades, only the ruins of the tower remain today. It is a listed building.
