Kulm, Mountain summit in Thuringia, Germany.
The Kulm summit rises to an elevation of 481.9 meters above sea level, offering views across the Thuringian landscape from its observation tower.
In 1884, local authorities constructed a 19-meter steel observation tower at the summit, bringing the total elevation to exactly 500 meters.
The Kulmberghaus serves as a central gathering point for visitors, providing a space for local events and traditional Thuringian celebrations throughout the year.
Multiple hiking paths lead to the summit from surrounding towns including Remschütz, Rudolstadt, and Saalfeld, with parking available at designated trailheads.
The summit received nature reserve status in 1938 due to its geological formations and plant varieties that differ from other peaks in the region.
