New surveys in 2000 discovered that the summit of the Kutschenberg was 201.0 m high and thus the highest hill in the state of Brandenburg. As a result, in 2011 a small granite stele was erected on its densely wooded summit that rises only slightly above its surroundings. The stele is inscribed with the words KUTSCHENBERG 201 m ü. NHN. Near the summit at 199.7 m is a trig point.
