Mahlberg, Mountain summit in Black Forest, Germany

Mahlberg reaches an elevation of 611.5 meters and stands as the highest point in both Karlsruhe and Rastatt counties of Baden-Württemberg.

The original observation tower, constructed under Grand Duke Frederick I of Baden in 1896, required replacement in 1961 due to wartime damage.

The mountain features a memorial site at the tower's base honoring two Wehrmacht soldiers who perished during artillery fire in April 1945.

Visitors can reach the viewing platform by climbing 160 steps, offering panoramic views of the Murg Valley, Moosalb Valley, and Upper Rhine Plain.

The eastern slope belongs to Malsch municipality in Karlsruhe, while the western slope extends into Gaggenau territory in Rastatt county.
