Large man made mountains around the world include the Coal Tips Range, made up of 1,200 artificial mounts in northern France.
Others include the Ziggurat of Chogha Zanbil – a man-made mountain palace that was built 3,000 years ago in Iran and the Sophienhöhe, a man-made mountain in Germany.
Germany was set to create another man-made mountain that would have been the new visionary landmark in the German city of Berlin.
This ambitious project was created by German firm Mila Architecture and directed by Jakob Tigges.
The proposed 1,000-metre-high artificial mountain was set to be built on the site of the former Tempelhof airport and would have become a never-before-seen tourist landmark in Germany’s capital city.
The impressive project was also hoping to be a wildlife refuge and was set to create a natural habitat.
While also creating a natural habitat for the mountain’s wildlife, The Berg was also hoping to be a recreation space for everyone in the city.
The city of Berlin sits upon a mountain with a peak exceeding 1,000 metres and which is covered with snow from September to March.
For this reason, the project was not pursued due to budget and logistic considerations.
Despite a big group supporting this project with many pressing to get the approval and financing required, it remains unclear what the future of The Berg will be.
Benefits of man-made mountains include rain generation, which creates rainfall, and improving climate change as man-made mountains help counter the effects of these damages.
Tourism is another big benefit for man-made mountains as they’re often part of adventurous tourism.
It was hoped The Berg would have been used for activities like skiing, rock climbing, and hang-gliding.
