Nussberg, Summit in Brunswick, Germany

The Nussberg reaches an elevation of 93 meters above sea level and consists primarily of red Buntsandstein rock formations in eastern Brunswick.

First documented in 1265 as Notberch, the hill served as a vital quarry until 1763, providing construction materials for numerous buildings in Brunswick.

The Olfermann Monument, erected in 1832, stands at the summit to commemorate General Olfermann who led Brunswick troops at the Battle of Quatrebras.

A World War II observation bunker on the hill now functions as a viewing platform, offering panoramic views across the Brunswick cityscape.

Underground air raid shelters from 1944 extend through the eastern section of the hill, designed to protect residents during wartime bombing campaigns.
