Rauenberg, Memorial stone and triangulation station in Tempelhof, Germany
The Rauenberg monument features a granite column with metal plates containing geographical coordinates and historical information about the triangulation network.
Established in 1853, Rauenberg served as the fundamental reference point for the German Hauptdreiecksnetz network, supporting triangulation efforts across Prussia until 1991.
The bronze plaques on the monument display the Prussian triangulation network from 1900, illustrating the technological progress in German mapping methods.
The site underwent restoration between 2008 and 2010 following damage from vandalism, and trees now block the original view toward Marienkirche.
The monument stands ten meters above the original Rauenberg hill summit, which transformed into Marienhöhe using World War II debris between 1949 and 1951.
