The Veitskopf is a hill, 428 m above sea level (NHN),[1][A 1] in the Eifel mountains of Germany.

It rises north of the lake of Laacher See in the area of the village of Wassenach.

The Veitskopf produced three lava flows, of which the first and easily the largest spread out northwards from the crater rim in the west.

The two lava streams that run in a southerly direction are nowhere near as large and were first identified from magnetic surveys because they were covered by a layer of pumice.

At the top of the Veitskopf is the Lydia Tower which enables an all-round view that includes the Laacher See, the Brohltal valley and even the Siebengebirge hills.
