description

The Seidelsberg, together with the Breiteberg and the Steinberg, belongs to a group of three phonolite peaks. In the upper area of ​​the wooded knoll there are rock formations and a block spread. On the north-northeast side of the knoll there is a spruce-coniferous forest. The south-southwest side is covered with a deciduous forest that used to be a peasant forest. The deciduous forest with a shrub layer of hazel, hawthorn and mountain ash is an FFH habitat type of the bedstraw-oak-hornbeam forest. On the Seidelberg u. a. the great mouse-eared bat and the fringed bat can be detected.

The summit of Seidelsberg consists of rocky cliffs and because of the high forest there is no view. From the slopes below the summit there is a clear view to the east and south-east over the Zittau basin to the Iser and Jeschken mountains . On the western slope, the Oberlausitzer Ringweg leads from the Breiteberg into the Butte.

The Seidelsberg is part of the 21.9 hectare FFH area “Basalt and Phonolite Dome of Eastern Upper Lusatia”.

Surname

On the mile sheet, the summit is still referred to as Roscher's mountain . In the 19th century the summit was named Seidelsberg . The name is derived from the owners of the farm over the mountain.
