Stollberg

Stollberg is a hill in North Frisia, Schleswig-Holstein, rising about 43 meters above sea level. It ranks as the fourth highest elevation in this district, and a large telecommunications tower now stands on its summit.

During World War II, the German Luftwaffe installed a radio direction antenna here to guide aircraft during bombing operations. After the war, the hill's use changed entirely, and new structures were built for civilian communication purposes.

The spring near this hill held spiritual importance for people in ancient times and shaped how locals viewed their landscape. Today you can still sense why this location mattered to earlier generations who lived here.

The location right next to the federal road B5 makes this hill easy to reach while exploring the region. Access to the summit itself is limited since a private telecommunications tower stands there, but you can view the surroundings from outside.

The telecommunications tower on the summit, about 139 meters tall, is one of the most distinctive structures in the area and serves as a regional broadcasting center. Many visitors overlook how this tower has completely changed the view from a distance and turned the hill into a modern landmark in the flat landscape.
