    The Backelsberg, on whose summit Haus Hartenfels is located at a height of 82.52 m, is the highest natural elevation in Duisburg at 83.7 m. It is surrounded by dense beech forest, so there is no view possible.

      The builder of the Hartenfels manor house on the Backelsberg was the steel industrialist Peter Klöckner (1863–1940). The house was built in 1910/1911 on a plot of land in the Duisburg city forest that Klöckner had bought from the city of Duisburg.
