The Bierberg is a nearly 267.5 m high mountain near Kalefeld in the Northeim district .
location
It is located south of Kalefeld and Echte . It is also north of Imbshausen and east of Eboldshausen . The federal motorway 7 , where a motorway parking lot is named after him , runs past the mountain to the west , and the B 248 passes to the east, and the B 445 and the Aue (Leine) to the north .
history
In the early Middle Ages there was probably the Bierburg on the top of the mountain , which is still visible today as an unevenness in the ground.
This is where the Northeim Landwehr ran. The Schnedekrug carter pub was built at the Landwehr passage .
In October 1545, in the run-up to the Schmalkaldic War, there was a clash of opposing troops with a strength of more than 10,000 men each, although Moritz (Saxony) was still trying to mediate. Landgrave Philip I (Hesse) , whose ally Ernst III. (Braunschweig-Grubenhagen) , had the better position from Bierberg and was able to arrest the Catholic Heinrich II (Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel) when he came to his army camp for talks in good faith . Despite the mediation efforts of his ally Hilmar von Münchhausen , he was arrested with his son in Ziegenhain and was not released until 1547.
