The Schäferberg , also called Kilometerberg , is a natural elevation in the Düppeler Forest on the Wannsee Island in the Berlin district of Wannsee , Steglitz-Zehlendorf district . At 103.2 m above sea level NHN it is the fifth highest elevation in Berlin .
The summit of the Schäferberg rises about 1.2 kilometers northwest of the center of Wannsee and two kilometers (as the crow flies ) northeast of the Klein Glienicke district of Potsdam . Geologically, the elevation is part of the Teltow plateau , which formed around 20,000 years ago in the Brandenburg stage of the Vistula Ice Age.
Because of the federal highway 1 , there called Königstraße , which overcomes a height difference of about 40 meters over a length of 1.97 kilometers, the elevation is also called Kilometer Mountain . On the street there is a memorial stone for the former KPD chairman John Schehr and the former resistance fighters Erich Steinfurth , Rudolf Schwarz and Eugen Schönhaar , who were shot here in 1934 "on the run".
The Berlin-Schäferberg telecommunications tower , which was completed in 1964 and is 212 meters high, stands on the Schäferberg and is not open to the public.
