Kaisberg, Summit in Hagen-Nord, Germany

The Kaisberg rises 185 meters above sea level, forming a prominent ridge east of Harkortsee with sandstone formations characteristic of the Ruhr region.

During railway construction in 1876, workers discovered three bronze swords at Kaisberg, each measuring 90 centimeters and originating from the Rhine and eastern France.

The summit features the Freiherr-vom-Stein-Tower, while the Wasserschloss Werdringen museum at its base exhibits artifacts from regional prehistory and early history.

The Geopfad Kaisberg trail circles the mountain, providing visitors access to observe geological formations and natural landscapes throughout the area.

The geological layers of Kaisberg contain some of the earliest coal-bearing strata in the Ruhr area, marking its significance in regional industrial development.
