Calverbühl, Natural monument in Dettingen an der Erms, Germany.

The Calverbühl stands 509 meters above sea level, featuring a prominent lime tree at its summit and basalt rock formations throughout its structure.

Before the Reformation of 1534, the hill contained a chapel where local residents from Dettingen performed regular processions on Saint Mark's Day, April 25th.

The hill functions as an environmental education site within the Swabian Alb biosphere reserve, demonstrating the geological processes of volcanic formations in the region.

Visitors can reach the summit through multiple paths, including a front trail and a back route over rocky terrain, offering views toward Stuttgart and the Erms Valley.

Geophysical measurements have detected strong magnetic anomalies in the hill, potentially enhanced by lightning strikes due to the presence of magnetite minerals.
