Góra Markowca, Hilltop military observation point in Rumia, Poland.

At 92 meters above sea level, Góra Markowca stands on the western edge of Rumia, offering views of the Kashubian Valley and Gdańsk Bay.

During World War II, German forces established an anti-aircraft battery on the summit, equipping it with 105mm cannons and radar guidance systems.

The hill takes its name from previous landowners Franz Markowca and Stefan Markowca, reflecting the local heritage of property succession.

The black tourist trail, Zagórska Struga, leads visitors through the area while mountain bikes access the summit during dry weather conditions.

The flat summit contains five preserved cannon foundations, trenches, and a fire control bunker from the 1945 military installations.
