The Milseburg is an extinct volcano and the second highest mountain of the Rhön Mountains in Hesse, Germany. The mountain is located eastwards of Fulda, near the villages of Kleinsassen and Danzwiesen. The headwaters of the River Bieber begin immediately in the south of the Milseburg.

Alexander von Humboldt called Milseburg "Germany's most beautiful mountain".
