On the Hohe Matze was once supposed to have been the castle of Karlstein, but there is no record of it in historical documents. Its name, given in 1393 as mazen, and later as meze or mätze, translates into high German as Weideberg or "willow mountain".

The watershed between the North Sea and the Black Sea runs over the Hohe Matze, as does the 50th parallel and the Höhenweg walking trail.[1]
