Seebuck, Mountain summit in the Black Forest, Baden-Württemberg, Germany

Seebuck is a 1449.3 m high elevation of the Feldberg massif and counts as the second-highest summit of the Black Forest. Its treeless top lies 1.7 km southeast of the Feldberg main summit, separated from it by the shallow Grüble saddle with only 29 m of prominence. The steep northeast side forms part of the cirque wall above the Feldsee, while the southeast flank, kept open by grazing, is used for skiing.

The Feldbergturm on the Seebuck is a former radio tower now used as an observation tower; since 2013 it has housed a museum devoted to Black Forest ham. Its 11th floor, more than 40 metres up, holds Baden-Württemberg's highest wedding room, used in summer. The summit itself is a 1449.3 m elevation of the Feldberg massif, separated from the main Feldberg summit by the shallow Grüble saddle.

The House of Nature stands not at the Seebuck but near the Feldberg main summit, and the sources only mention it as the site behind which a 180-million-litre reservoir for artificial snowmaking was planned. Hydrology professor Carmen de Jong of the University of Strasbourg called that reservoir project a complete planning error. The tower on the Seebuck itself holds a museum of Black Forest ham and, in summer, Baden-Württemberg's highest wedding room on the 11th floor.

A large car park at the foot of the Seebuck, opened in December 2015, holds 1,200 vehicles and is Germany's highest multi-storey car park at 1,300 metres. From there, paths lead to the Feldberg, Stübenwasen, Herzogenhorn and Hinterzarten or down into the Menzenschwand, Wiesental, St. Wilhelm and Zastler valleys. The Felsenweg down to the Feldsee is steep and suits only sure-footed walkers with firm boots.

The Feldbergturm on the summit is a former radio tower now used as an observation tower; since 2013 it has housed a museum devoted to Black Forest ham, and in summer couples can marry on the 11th floor, more than 40 metres up, in Baden-Württemberg's highest wedding room.
