Wendelstein is a mountain in the northernmost group of German Alps, located just north of the town of Miesbach in Upper Bavaria. Although not particularly high by Alpine standards at 6030 feet, the popularity of the mountain was ensured when, in 1912, construction was completed on a 6.18 mile mountain railway, the first of its kind in Germany.

This stein was produced by Merkelbach & Wick for distribution by Martin Pauson, a Munich finishing shop and distributor, and is typically bottom-marked �Martin Pauson/M�nchen�, often with an additional �M&W/Gr.� manufacturer�s mark.

Price Range: $200-$300
