Giersberg, Mountain summit in Siegen, Germany
Rising to 354.4 meters, Giersberg stands as a prominent elevation point within the Rhineland Slate Mountains, featuring forested slopes and hiking paths.
The mountain received its first documented mention in official records on June 24, 1343, remaining undeveloped until residential construction began in the late 1800s.
The mountain serves as a central point for the SEVEN SUMMITS SIEGEN event, drawing thousands of participants for marathon and hiking competitions each year.
Several educational institutions, including a primary school and a Waldorf school, occupy the summit area alongside a sports field and community gardens.
Two railway tunnel tubes, known as the Giersbergtunnel, pass directly beneath the mountain, while a section of the European Long Distance Path E1 crosses its surface.
