Stromberg, Natural summit in Grand Est, France.

The Stromberg summit reaches an elevation of 314 meters, standing as an elliptical mountain formation along the French-Luxembourg border in the Moselle department.

The Stromberg hill has served as a natural boundary marker between France and Luxembourg, with conservation measures implemented on both sides starting from 1993.

Residents of Contz-les-Bains maintain a tradition of rolling a flaming wheel down the hill on Saint John's Eve to predict wine harvest outcomes.

Two telecommunications towers occupy the summit, providing network coverage to the surrounding communities of Schengen and Contz-les-Bains.

The hill forms a butte-témoin, isolated by deep ravines on its western and northern sides, while the Moselle River flows along its southern and eastern base.

Location: Moselle
