In connection with other documents such as the Prümer Urbar from 893, it is beyond doubt that this is the hamlet of Berg. This is the oldest documented mention of a district in the Niederzier community.

From 1961 to 1971 the postcode was "5161 Berg (via Düren)", from 1972 to 1993 "5162 Niederzier", since then "52382 Niederzier".
