Butterberg, Mountain summit in Bischofswerda, Germany.

Butterberg is a 384.1 m high hill about three kilometres north of Bischofswerda's centre in Saxony. Its summit holds a mountain inn opened in 1860 with a 21-metre lookout tower. Two rock groups, the Katzensteine, rise 300 m northwest of the inn; they are made of two-mica granodiorite and measure 3.5 m high by 20 m long.

The city of Bischofswerda bought Butterberg in 1544 from the von Bolberitz brothers, owners of the Pickau manor. From July 1868 until about 1890 the 21-metre tower on the summit served as Station 51 of the Royal Saxon triangulation, used for surveying the kingdom. The mountain inn and its lookout tower had opened in 1860.

The name is explained by two traditions: a legend of the plague years 1577–1586, when villagers brought butter and other goods up the hill for Bischofswerda's inhabitants and washed the coins in water, and the chronicler Karl Wilhelm Mittag's derivation from the Sorbian sun god Jutrow, via Jutrowberg and Butrow. The Sorbian name is Butrowa hora.

Several marked hiking routes lead to the summit, offering options for visitors of varying experience levels. The woodland paths are easily accessible and suitable for casual to moderate walks.

The summit rises noticeably above the surrounding flat terrain, creating a natural vantage point overlooking the region. From the top, visitors can see across the wider Saxon landscape and nearby settlements.
