The Ellenbogen is an 814-metre high extinct volcano in the Thuringian Rhön in the district of Landkreis Schmalkalden-Meiningen, Thuringia, Germany.

As with most of the Rhön Mountains its summit is more of a gently curving plateau.

Near its highest point are the dwellings of Eisenacher Haus and Thüringer Rhönhaus.

This rise is the 815.5 m high Schnitzersberg, which is the highest mountain in the Thuringian Rhön.

In spite of that some maps give the height of the Ellenbogen as 816 metres as well.
