The hill, approximately 200 meters high, was formed around 95 million years ago when the Cretaceous sea deposited Pläner (calcareous sandstone) and sandstone. In 1939, during the construction of a parade ground, several urn graves dating from 1300 BC onwards were discovered. The Trutzsch has only been accessible to the public again since the end of its military use in 1995. From the viewing platform, one is rewarded with a view through the trees and bushes over Nickern and Prohlis, all the way to the opposite bank of the Elbe River.

Gohlig Triangulation Pillar, with seating and a view. Information: Gohlig Saxon Station. Land survey pillar (Nagel Pillar), erected in 1865. The Gohlig, also known as Golden Height, is a hill in Bannewitz, approximately 345 meters high. The name originates from Sorbian and means "bare, treeless hill".

The 476 meter high Wilisch consists mainly of basalt, which is due to its volcanic origin. The last volcanic activity that led to the formation of the Wilisch dates back to the Tertiary, more precisely the Oligocene to Miocene. The region around the Wilisch is also geologically interesting because it is rich in basalt, which in the past led to the intensive extraction and use of this rock. The view from the Wilisch and the triangulation column are also really very impressive.

Trutzsch is bleating: Sheep and goats should prevent the uncontrolled overgrowth of the Trutzsch: Greenery has been growing and thriving on the former military site in Nickern since the mid-1990s. Too much. The blackberries in particular are on the rise and can only be kept off the paths with great effort. There are not enough workers to maintain the entire area. That's why around 70 sheep and one goat have been doing it since May. Four areas of different sizes were fenced off for this purpose. The animals migrate back and forth between the four areas at intervals of one and a half and three weeks. As a result, only one of the four areas is always closed and all others can be used by visitors at any time. As the sheep eat the leaves of the blackberries, they become smaller from year to year and can thus be kept under control. In addition to building the fences, the city has also planted 1,850 white elms in recent weeks. In addition, 46 cairns provide a habitat for the native sand lizards. Thanks to the sheep, the cairns are no longer overgrown with brambles.

The Royal Saxon Triangulation was a large-scale surveying project carried out in the Kingdom of Saxony between 1862 and 1902. The aim was to measure the country precisely and determine geographic coordinates in order to create better maps. The survey covered numerous points throughout the kingdom and 36 1st order and 122 2nd order triangulation pillars were erected, including the triangulation pillar on the Gohilg. The survey results formed the basis for the creation of the first topographical map of the Kingdom of Saxony.

Small hill in the Nickern district. Two benches invite you to linger. Nice view of the east of Dresden.
