Glockenberg, Mountain summit in Sankt Andreasberg, Germany.

Rising to 627 meters above sea level, Glockenberg features multiple hiking trails through dense forests and natural rock formations in the Harz mountain range.

The Glockenturm, constructed in 1688 using materials from the old Dreifaltigkeitskirche belfry, stands as a testament to Sankt Andreasberg's architectural evolution.

The mountain hosts traditional Easter fire celebrations on Karsamstag, bringing together local residents for communal gatherings and seasonal festivities.

Multiple marked trails lead to the summit, with parking facilities available at the base and accommodation options including the renovated Berghotel Glockenberg.

From 1913 to 1958, the St. Andreasberger Kleinbahn operated a cogwheel railway system that transported visitors up the mountain slopes.
