Augstberg (848 m) is a mountain on the Swabian Jura in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It can be found 1.5 km south of Steinhilben, a district to the east of the town Trochtelfingen.
== History == In 1894, a 15 m high wooden observation tower (Augstbergturm) was constructed at the summit. Four years later in 1898, a storm brought the tower down. After reconstruction, the tower was raised to be 22 m high.
