Humboldthöhe, Summit at Volkspark Humboldthain in Berlin, Germany.
The Humboldthöhe summit rises 85 meters above sea level, offering views across Berlin from two remaining concrete flak towers atop a World War II shelter.
French military forces demolished most flak towers after 1945, leaving only the northern structures at Humboldthöhe due to safety considerations regarding their removal.
The elevation forms part of Volkspark Humboldthain, established in 1870 to honor Alexander von Humboldt, the Prussian explorer and natural scientist.
Visitors access the summit through a 100-meter serpentine path, with guided tours available from April to October due to bat conservation measures.
The summit incorporates 1.4 million cubic meters of post-war rubble, creating an artificial hill that now supports dense vegetation and wildlife habitats.
