Neuerburger Kopf, Mountain summit in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany
The Neuerburger Kopf rises 286 meters above sea level, forming a distinct basalt cone within the Wittlicher Senke depression.
The mountain bears remnants of a 12th-century castle built by Archbishop Albero, which served as a customs collection point along trade routes.
Local folklore tells of a hidden treasure beneath the castle ruins that can only be discovered by a young man of perfect character.
Multiple walking paths lead to the summit, offering visitors access to viewpoints overlooking the surrounding Rhineland-Palatinate countryside.
The volcanic formation dates back 108 million years, making it one of the earliest volcanic structures in the Eifel region.
