The Dammersfeldkuppe, a kuppe or domed hill in the Rhön
A Kuppe is the term used in German-speaking central Europe for a mountain or hill with a rounded summit that has no rock formation, such as a tor, on it. A range of such hills is called a Kuppengebirge. In geology the term also refers to corresponding stratigraphic forms. The term is similar to the English topographical and geological terms, knoll and dome.[1] It is also analogous to the French word ballon which means a mountain with a rounded summit.
In cartography in German-speaking countries, the term is used more widely to refer to all eminences (biaxially convex landforms) i.e. including those with a more pointed appearance.
Kuppen are a common feature of many ranges within the German Central Uplands including the Rhön Mountains.
