The access is more suitable for hikers, but it's short and therefore also suitable for a bike ride. Great views of the pretty town and the mountains beyond.

A lovely place to take a break right next to the tower. There are seating areas, as well as outside seating.

A great view from the tower

the Mahlberg with its striking tower - 360° panoramic view is always a special highlight or mountain destination. The concrete tube has been creatively enhanced with great, successful wall paintings. e.g. a stag - capercaillie or foxglove and a kingfisher. Simply well done. 👏✌️💪

Interesting descent with a few major obstacles.

It's best to sit on the bench when the sun is shining

In a document from Emperor Heinrich IV from 1102, a castle belonging to the nobleman Werinhardus in Michelberg is mentioned, which was apparently built around 1050 without imperial permission and from which Werinhardus had illegally appropriated the lands of the Rotenfels estate of the Speyer monastery, so that Emperor Heinrich III had it . forced to give it back and to raze Michelberg Castle. Since his sons Werinhardus, Eberhardus and Cuno both rebuilt the castle and took possession of the Rotenfels estate again, they were expelled from the castle and its possessions by Emperor Henry IV in 1102 and their property was transferred to the diocese of Speyer. This subsequently awarded the Michelbach possessions as a fief to the later Counts of Eberstein. The castle was mentioned several times in documents as Rosenstein (the rose was the symbol of the Ebersteiners) until 1503. With documentation dating back to around 1050, the castle would be the oldest documented castle in southern Germany. Source and further information: https://www.alleburgen.de/bd.php?id=39189

Although the sign is no longer hanging at the highest point, it is still recommended as a hiking destination for someone who likes records.
