Fremersberg

The Fremersberg is a hill, 524.6 m above sea level (NHN),[1] on the western edge of the northern Black Forest in south Germany on the territory of the town of Baden-Baden and the municipality of Sinzheim.

As the establishment of a TV studio for Südwestfunk in Hans-Bredow-Straße in Baden-Baden required a permanent microwave relay station, the tower was pulled down for aesthetic reasons and rebuilt.

[2] The Fremersberg lies west of the town of Baden-Baden and, together with the Yberg, separates it from the Rebland municipalities of Varnhalt, Steinbach and Neuweier.

Dowager Margravine Sibylle of Saxe-Lauenburg had it built for her sons in the years 1716–21 by Johann Michael Ludwig Rohrer.

The symphonic poem Der Fremersberg (1853) by Bohemian composer Miloslaw Koennemann [de; nl] (1826-1890) relates to the hill.
