Montagne Verte

Montagne Verte, Mountain summit near Trier, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany

Montagne Verte, called Grüneberg in German, is a 348 m high hill between Trier and Mertesdorf in Rhineland-Palatinate. Its summit lies on the Ruwer-Maximin district near Grünhaus, while the road Am Grüneberg belongs to Trier-Kürenz. On the southwestern side is the Bundeswehr's Wehrtechnische Dienststelle 41, and on the southern slope lies the Maximin Grünhaus wine estate with the vineyards Herrenberg, Abtsberg and Bruderberg. A roughly 43 m transmission tower stands on the hill, and several bunker ruins remain.

Montagne Verte, the German Grüneberg, is known above all for the fighting of the Revolutionary Wars: in 1792 during the expedition against Trier and in 1794 during the defence of the city. A French account notes that the hill, stripped of the woods that once covered it, showed only moss and grass, so attackers climbed it in the open without cover.

The name Grüneberg likely comes from scattered veins of diabase, a greenish volcanic rock called Grünstein. On the southern slope lies the Maximin Grünhaus wine estate, whose vineyards are named Grünhäuser Herrenberg, Abtsberg and Bruderberg. The ruins of the former Friedrichshof stand at about 283.5 metres.

The summit lies on the Ruwer-Maximin cadastral area near Grünhaus, about 4 km northeast of Trier, with the Am Grüneberg road belonging to Trier-Kürenz. The southern slope holds the Maximin Grünhaus wine estate and its Herrenberg, Abtsberg and Bruderberg vineyard sites. The southwestern area is occupied by Bundeswehr Wehrtechnische Dienststelle 41, so access to that part is restricted.

The name Grüneberg likely comes from scattered veins of diabase, a greenish volcanic rock called Grünstein, found on the hill. On the southwestern slope sits the Bundeswehr's Wehrtechnische Dienststelle 41, a testing office for land vehicle systems and engineer troops.
