Jakobsberg, Mountain summit in Rhine Valley, Germany

The Jakobsberg rises 235 meters above sea level, providing views across the Rhine River and surrounding valleys of North Rhine-Westphalia.

The location housed underground manufacturing facilities for Philips during World War II, utilizing former iron ore mines beneath the mountain surface.

The summit features the Klostergut Jakobsberg, a monastery estate that represents the regional connection between religious heritage and natural landscapes.

While the Klostergut undergoes renovations until 2025, visitors can access the 18-hole golf course and seasonal bistro from April through October.

The mountain houses telecommunication facilities that replaced a historical Bismarck Tower, marking the evolution from memorial structure to modern infrastructure.
