Bierberg (Dassel)

The Bierberg is a 270 meter high mountain in the Solling foreland near Dassel .

geography

The elevation, made up of shell limestone , is located northeast of the city of Dassel on the Dassel Basin and connects to the Amtsberge to the south . The Ilme flows at the southern foot of the Bierberg .

Surname

The name is etymologically traced back to the Middle High German word “biege” (to bow) after the name “Bieher” documented in 1654. On a deepening of the terrain on the northwest side, which was used as a landfill in the 1960s and thus backfilled, rock cellars in the limestone rock there were used to store beer in the early modern era . As a result, the earlier name gradually became the current one.

Drei Linden viewpoint

use

The mountain is largely used for agriculture . This became possible after thirty acres of old oak trees were felled in 1798 . On the southwest side, limestone was extracted from a quarry until after the Second World War. A settlement was established on this mountain side in the 1980s. The Paul Gerhardt School Dassel is located at the southern foot of the mountain near the Ilme. The uneven or steep parcels of the Bierberg are shrubby or form islands of field trees .

A place planted with three linden trees on the west side is a vantage point from which one can see the old town of Dassel, the eastern Solling as well as Mackensen and Sievershausen .
