Schutterlindenberg

Schutterlindenberg rises 297 meters above sea level at the northern edge of Lahr, featuring a prominent linden grove at its peak covering one hectare.

In 1843, a constitutional column was erected on the mountain to commemorate the first Baden constitution of 1818, which was later restored after damage in 1945.

The mountain holds a commemorative bust of Wilhelm Schubert, a notable 19th-century mayor and merchant who influenced the regional republican movement.

The hiking trail to the summit starts at Lahr train station, extending 2.6 kilometers through varied terrain with well-maintained paths suitable for different fitness levels.

A transmission tower on the mountain, originally built by Canadian forces, now broadcasts FM and DAB radio programs throughout the surrounding region.
