About

The Hochstein (Sorbian: 'Rubježny hród') is a mountain in Saxony, eastern Germany. At an elevation of 533.1 m (1,749 ft), it is the easternmost peak of the Czorneboh chain in the Upper Lusatian Highlands.

At the summit cliffs, which are under protection as natural monuments, the mica granodiorite of which the mountain consists can be observed breaking through the surface.
