Kaiserstuhl, Low mountain range in Baden-Württemberg, Germany

The Kaiserstuhl stretches across 15 kilometers with a maximum elevation of 557 meters, featuring volcanic formations and diverse geological structures throughout its hills.

The name changed from Königsstuhl to Kaiserstuhl after King Otto III, who held court nearby in 994, received his imperial crown in 996.

The region maintains numerous wineries producing Müller-Thurgau, Riesling, and Gewürztraminer varieties due to its favorable soil composition and climate conditions.

The North-South Trail connects multiple sections of the mountain range, while the Breisgau S-Bahn and Kaiserstuhl Railway provide transportation access throughout the area.

The mountain range contains over 30 orchid species and supports wild grape hyacinths, sand lizards, and praying mantises in its warm microclimate.

Elevation above the sea: 557 m
