Kalkberg

Kalkberg is a distinctive gypsum hill on the edge of Lüneburg’s old town and one of the area’s most notable natural landmarks. Once quarried, it now offers a mix of geology, history, and nature in a compact setting. Visitors come for its unusual white rock face, views over the town, and its role as a protected habitat for rare plants and bats. If you are exploring Lüneburg and want a short stop that combines scenery with local character, Kalkberg is a worthwhile visit.
