Döbraberg

Döbraberg, mountain summit in the Franconian Forest, Bavaria, Germany

Döbraberg is a mountain summit in the Franconian Forest with an elevation of approximately 795 meters, placing it among the higher peaks in the Hof district. The slopes are covered in forest vegetation, and the summit offers views of the surrounding woodland landscape.

The mountain was called Culm in earlier centuries before taking the name of Döbra, the village on its eastern slope; Döbra probably derives from a Slavic word for washing ore-bearing rock. From 1961 the US Air Force ran a radar station on the ridge, German Luftwaffe soldiers were stationed there from the 1960s, and the Bundeswehr took it over in 1974. Because of its proximity to the East German border, the station formed part of NATO's air defence during the Cold War and much of the summit was a military restricted area.

The name Döbra probably comes from the Slavic word Dobratsch, referring to the washing of ore-bearing rock. The mountain was called Culm in earlier centuries before being named after the village of Döbra on its eastern slope. Some publications refer to it simply as Döbra.

The summit is about a ten-minute walk from the village of Döbra on the eastern slope. Several trails of the Frankenwaldverein cross here, including the Frankenweg, the Wasserscheidenweg and the European long-distance routes E3 and E6. A small shelter for hikers stands next to the Prinz-Luitpold-Turm.

The summit's hard Kieselschiefer rock and the 18-metre Prinz-Luitpold-Turm, built in 1902 by the Frankenwaldverein, push the site past the 800-metre contour line. The tower is named after Prince Luitpold of Bavaria, and a small shelter for hikers stands beside it.
