Completely unpretentious and even without a table, the center of Germany is located in Mihla, if you use the "Filling Squares" method as a basis (source: de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mittelpunkte_Deutschlands ).

So if you've always wanted to go to the middle of the country without making a big fuss, you can take a look at Mihla.

There are different methods for determining the center of Germany. The calculation of this center is interesting: If you divide the area of Germany into a large number of equal squares, then the center is the point at which the sum of the distances to all of these squares is minimal. This point is in Mihla at the intersection shown in the picture and is not marked.

A plaque has been attached, which contains the exact coordinates of this German center point according to the method of squaring. On the side of the attached source, you can read well how three Erfurt students calculated this center point as part of their seminar paper. mihla.de/aktuelles.php?s_id=11652
