geography

location

The Sudmerberg extends in the northern foothills of the Harz Nature Park . It separates the Goslar districts of Sudmerberg in the southwest, Oker in the southeast and Steinfeld in the east. The Abzucht flows south past the mountain and flows into the Oker that runs east of it .

In the southwest of the oval-shaped mountain, viewed from a bird's eye view, there is the main peak and in the northeast - west above Steinfeld - a 317  m high secondary peak; both are about 1.3 km apart. The Sudmerberg conservation area is located on the mountain ( CDDA no. 324922; designated in 1966; 1.5  km² in size). The federal highway 498 leads past to the south and branches off in the southwest from the federal highway 6 which passes through the mountain west to north .

The Sudmerberg belongs to the natural spatial main unit group Northern Harz foreland (No. 51), in the main unit Harzrandmulde (510), in the subunit Harzburger Harzvorland (510 1 ) and its sub-area foothills of the northern Upper Harz (510 1 .4) to the natural area Harzburg-Goslarer Vorberge (510 1 .40). The landscape falls to the northwest to the north in the natural area of Immenroder Schotterfluren (510 1 .12) and to the east in the natural area of Okertal (510 1 .10).

Towers

The Sudmerberg tower, also called Sudmerbergwarte or Sudmerberger Warte , stands on the summit region of the Sudmerberg . The former guard tower made of sandstone and rubble stone was built around 1400 and burned down in 1670 after a lightning strike. It is 12.1 m high and, as a round tower, has a diameter of 5.6 m.

The view of the city of Goslar, the Harz foreland and the Brocken falls from the viewing platform of today's observation tower . The tower is included as no. 108 in the system of stamping points of the Harz hiking pin.
