Manhartsberg, Mountain summit in Lower Austria, Austria.

The Manhartsberg rises 537 meters above sea level as a low, flat-lying mountain ridge that forms part of the granite Bohemian massif in Lower Austria.

During World War II, the ridge housed a secret radar installation named Zangendorf 4, which was strategically positioned near one of the highest points.

The mountain ridge marks the natural border between two distinct regions of Lower Austria: the Waldviertel in the upper quarter and Weinviertel in the lower quarter.

The western slopes contain the Kamptal-Schönberg nature park, recognized by UNESCO as the Kamptal Geopark, offering numerous hiking trails for exploration.

Rich deposits of amethyst have been discovered near the town of Maissau within the Manhartsberg, making it a notable geological site in Austria.
