Goldberg, Summit in Hagener Stadtwald, Germany.

Goldberg is a 266.2 m high hill in Hagen, near the village of Hagen an der Volme. The Goldbergtunnel, built between 1906 and 1910, runs beneath it, and the Hagener Bismarckturm, erected in 1900/1901, stands on its summit.

Gold and silver were mined at the Goldberg near the village of Hagen an der Volme as early as the late Middle Ages. Ferdinand Freiligrath and Levin Schücking, in their 1842 travel book Das malerische und romantische Westphalen, report 12th-century mining and cite a feudal charter between Archbishop Adolf von Altena of Cologne and Arnold von Altena as evidence. The hill is named in a legend of a stranger executed on the pyre and cursed by his mother.

The mountain's name recalls the gold and silver mining documented near the village of Hagen an der Volme in the late Middle Ages. Writers Ferdinand Freiligrath and Levin Schücking retold the local legends in their 1842 book Das malerische und romantische Westphalen, including a curse said to have been placed on the Goldberg.

The summit is reached on foot; the Goldbergtunnel, built between 1906 and 1910, runs beneath the hill, so walkers cross above it rather than through it. The 1900/1901 Bismarck Tower stands on the hilltop and serves as the landmark for the final approach.

The 266.2 m summit is undercut by the Goldbergtunnel, built between 1906 and 1910, while the Hagener Bismarckturm has stood on the hill since 1900/1901. Ferdinand Freiligrath and Levin Schücking recorded the hill's legends in their 1842 travel book Das malerische und romantische Westphalen.
