Overview

The highest German mountain is 2962.06  m above sea level. NHN the Bavarian Zugspitze , the height of which up to 2000 was 2961.47  m above sea level. NN was specified. Bremen reaches its lowest height : the highest natural elevation of the smallest federal state at 32.5  m is located in the Friedehorstpark in the Bremen district of Burglesum . It is dominated by the mountain of the garbage dump in Bremen-Blockland , the summit of which is 49  m high. The highest natural mountain in Berlin, the Great Müggelberg , is 114.7  m 5.4 m lower than the Teufelsberg , which was heaped up from rubble from the Second World War and reached a height of 120.1  m ; the highest elevation in Berlin is an artificially raised elevation of the Arkenberge with 120.7  m . Even the highest mountains in Hamburg , Schleswig-Holstein and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania do not reach a height of 200  m .

At 201  m , the Kutschenberg is the highest peak in Brandenburg . The country has its highest point topographically at 201.4  m at the Heidehöhe . However, because the summit of the mountain is a few meters beyond the state border with Saxony , it is not considered the highest mountain in Brandenburg.

The elevation in Friedehorstpark is the only one of the sixteen peaks that is not marked by a summit cross or a stone. The summit of the Großer Beerberg lies in the core zone of a biosphere reserve , which is why the highest point in Thuringia is not allowed to be entered. The starting point for summiteers is a viewing platform that is just below.
