Mont des Cats is a small hill (alt. 164m) near the town of Godewaersvelde, France. Located in the Nord department, its Flemish name is Katsberg. The hill is seat of the Mont des Cats abbey, famous for its cheese produced by monks since 1890. Atop the hill rests an antenna that reaches a height of 364m and transmits both television and radio signals. It transmits FM radio signals at 500 W and has three ultra-high frequency 80 kW transmitters for TV broadcasting. The antenna provides radio and television for part of the Nord Pas de Calais digital television (DTT). The traditional feast of Saint-Hubert is held atop this hill on the third Sunday in October.
