The Galgenberg is a 506.1-metre-high hill east of Elbingerode (Harz) in the Harz Mountains of central Germany . It marks the highest point on the row of limestone crags found there. The old Trock Way ( Trockweg ), which ran from Quedlinburg to the imperial stronghold of Bodfeld , probably ran past the Galgenberg immediately to the north. East of the hill lies the abandoned village of Erdfelde that was closely linked to Bodfeld.
