    Interestingly, the spanish highest point pictured there is actually nowhere to be seen on this map, as it’s located in the Canary islands, further to the south.

      As long as we can still get access to the water from said mountain to brew beer, it doesn’t matter :D

    What is that 5165m mountain? I’ve always been told that the Mont-Blanc was the highest mountain of Europe and now I’m confused.

    EDIT: Ararat mount in East Turkey. Considered an Asian mountain on Wikipedia.

      Denmark is super flat. I believe the highest point is the pylons of the bridge between the two Major islands, Funen and Zealand.

        If we count all man made structures, I believe there are 18 radio transmitter towers that are taller than the bridge pylons.

      The only reason the Netherlands has that high a number, is because of the hill on which the Dutch, German, and Belgian borders meet. If you take Limburg out of the equation, the next highest point is 110 meters.

      In two of the Dutch provinces, the highest point is a garbage dump hill.

    Now people get to argue about which parts of Turkey and Russia are in Europe. Kaliningrad is Asia but “Europe” borders Iran.

      said 5167(?) is mount Ararat and it’s clearly not in Europe

      but!

      when the Europe/Asia separation is based on identity politics… (cough: religion) and Georgia, Armenia or Cyprus is included in Europe but not Turkey, there’s no need to argue 🤷

      Ararat’s Armenian history shouldn’t be ignored either
