Geography
Location
The Kutschenberg is 2.5 km west-southwest of Ortrand and 1.5 kilometres south of Großkmehlen not far from the A 13 motorway to the west and within a small area of woodland in the Kmehlener Berge.
Height
New surveys in 2000 discovered that the summit of the Kutschenberg was 201.0 m high[2] and thus the highest hill in the state of Brandenburg. As a result, in 2011 a small granite stele was erected on its densely wooded summit that rises only slightly above its surroundings. The stele is inscribed with the words "KUTSCHENBERG 201 m ü. NHN".[1] Near the summit at 199.7 m[3] is a trig point.
About 11 km to the west near Gröden is the Heidehöhe which, at 201.4 m, is slightly higher than the Kutschenberg, but is not the highest hill in Brandenburg, but its highest point, because the summit above it, the Heideberg, lies in Saxony. There is commonly held notion that the Hagelberg (200.24 m) on the Fläming Heath is the highest hill in Brandenburg, but the Kutschenberg is just a little higher.
Am Kutschenberg racetrack
On the northeast hillside of the Kutschenberg about 400 metres from the summit is the nationally known offroad racetrack of Am Kutschenberg, where car and motorcycle races are regularly held.[4]

Le Kutschenberg est une colline en Allemagne située à cheval de la frontière entre les arrondissements de Haute-Forêt-de-Spree-Lusace en Brandebourg et de Meissen en Saxe. Elle fait partie des Kmehlener Berge. Son sommet d’une altitude de 201 m se trouve quelques mètres au nord de la frontière juste en Brandebourg[2], en faisant le sommet le plus haut de ce Land. Cependant, le point culminant du Brandebourg se trouve à 201,4 m, environ 11 km à l’ouest du Kutschenberg près de Gröden, sur la Heidehöhe, un point sur le flanc nord du Heideberg, dont le sommet est en Saxe[3].Другой контент может иметь иную лицензию.
