Dünsberg, Summit and archaeological site in Biebertal, Germany.
The Dünsberg rises to an elevation of 497.7 meters, forming the highest mountain in the Giessen and Wetzlar region of central Germany.
Archaeological excavations on the southern slope revealed burial sites from the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods, along with fortification systems from the 8th century BC.
The Celtic settlement contained fourteen gates within its outer ramparts, indicating an advanced social organization during the La Tene period around 300 BC.
Multiple marked trails guide visitors to the summit while designated parking areas at the base provide convenient access for hikers and archaeology enthusiasts.
The mountain combines natural elevation prominence with archaeological significance, ranking as the third highest peak among 92 mountains in Landkreis Giessen.
