Königshain Hills
The Königshain Hills (German: Königshainer Berge, Upper Sorbian: Limas) lie in Eastern Upper Lusatia west of the town of Görlitz in the county of the same name. They are located north and south of the village of Königshain after which they are named, and are an extensive, mainly wooded granite region. Their highest points are the 415 m above NHN high Kämpferberge and the well-known Hochstein at 406 m above NHN. The entire hill range has been a protected area since 1974. In a part (Elysium) of the former Firsten Quarry there is a bird reserve.
