The Sophienberg is a so-called Umlaufberg of the Jagst. It used to flow in a loop to the south of it, later it made its way through the mountain on the north side. What remains is the mountain, which was called Altenberg until 1796. At that time it was designed as a garden in the English style, but it fell into disrepair again in the 19th century. Remnants of the fixtures are still present.
