    From here, at Fort Oberer Kuhberg, you also have a view of Ulm Minster. Easily accessible by trekking bike. The fort used to be a concentration camp.

      A piece of history. The fort houses the fortress museum on the one hand, which is run on a voluntary basis (guided tour usually every 1st Sunday of the month) and on the other hand the documentation center Oberer Kuhberg. The latter deals with the history of the fort as a concentration camp from 1933 to 1935.

      From the upper wall of the fort you have a wonderful view of Ulm and the Hochstrasse. Around the corner is the University of Design, where Max Bill worked, among others. A worthwhile destination and an excellent starting point for a tour, for example to drive over the Hochstrasse to Allewind and Ermingen.


      The current opening times can either be found at tourismus.ulm.de/web/de/ulm-und-neu-ulm/bundesfestung-ulm/fort-oberer-kuhberg.php, the documentation center at: https: // www .dzok-ulm.de / and the fortress association at: festung-ulm.de

        The Oberer Kuhberg Fort is a place that makes you think. The view over the Danube valley and the Alb is also fantastic.
