Mühlen-Berg, Cultural heritage hill in Brandenburg an der Havel, Germany
Mühlen-Berg is a hill standing about 61 meters high in the Brandenburg an der Havel region. The site forms part of the Karower Platte formation and offers views across the surrounding Havel landscape from its summit.
The hill formed as a ground moraine during the last ice age and was later used by humans as a lookout post for trade along the Havel. During the Middle Ages, the site held strategic value for monitoring river traffic and regional trade routes.
The hill is crisscrossed with walking paths that guide visitors through heathland and old tree stands. These routes connect the site to Brandenburg an der Havel's city center and are frequently used by locals for leisurely walks.
The hill is accessible on foot via well-marked paths that are manageable with strollers or light luggage. Visitors should wear suitable footwear, as the ground can be uneven and slippery when wet.
The terrain displays in its soil layers the geological history of the region from the last ice age to the present. These visible layers tell the story of climate shifts and landscape transformation without words.
