Schenkenberg

Schenkenberg, Mountain summit in Vienna, Austria.

The Schenkenberg is a 345-metre hill in Obersievering, in Vienna's 19th district of Döbling. It is not a distinct summit but the south-eastern slope of the Pfaffenberg, built of flysch with quartz, limestone, marl and conglomerates. The Reisenbergbach separates it from the Reisenberg to the north, the Arbesbach from the Hackenberg to the south.

The Schenkenberg was first recorded in 1329 as "in dem Schenkenberge". Its name probably comes from a Mundschenk family that held land here; the Kuenringer, also landowners in the area, bore the title Oberste Schenken. The Schenken von Schenkenberg were an old Swiss noble family named after a hill castle between the Fricktal and the Ergau, in what is now the canton of Aargau.

The name likely comes from a Mundschenk family that held land here, and the Kuenringer, who also owned property in the area, bore the title Oberste Schenken. The hill was first recorded in 1329 as "in dem Schenkenberge". Today vineyards surround the Schenkenberg.

The Schenkenberg is a wooded slope in Obersievering, not a marked summit trail; access is via lanes between the vineyards and the surrounding streets of the 19th district. The Reisenbergbach separates it from the Reisenberg to the north and the Arbesbach from the Hackenberg to the south, so follow these stream lines for orientation.

The German Wikipedia notes that the Schenkenberg is a gipfelloser Berghang, a slope without a summit, in Obersievering; it forms the south-eastern slope of the Bellevuehöhe. Its 345-metre figure belongs to the hill as a whole, not to a distinct peak. The name probably recalls a Mundschenk family that held land here, and the Kuenringer, also landowners in the area, bore the title Oberste Schenken.
