The Liedberg is a witness mountain in the Liedberg district of Korschenbroich , Rhein-Kreis Neuss . It rises around 30 m above the surroundings and has an area of 300 m × 700 m. The highest point is 78.1 m above sea level.
The Liedberger Haag is home to the Römerwacht , the Liedberger Mühlenturm and the Liedberg Castle, which was formerly located in Cologne . It is overgrown with an old oak - hornbeam mixed forest.
The Liedberg sandstone was mined on the mountain . The scout grave reminds of a tunnel collapse .
Haus Fürth am Kommerbach is about one kilometer to the east . To the northeast is Haus Raedt .
The geologist Georg Waldmann published his observations in 2017 that the Liedberg could have been the historical Aduatuca . However, there are no concrete archaeological finds.
Part of the mountain is designated as a nature reserve Quarzitkuppe Liedberg . With an official area of 18.70 ha, this measure "serves to preserve the remains of the main terrace, which protrude from the Lower Rhine Plain like an island, with their distinctive relief, because of their geological and geographical significance as well as the oak-hornbeam forest with rare animal species and a diverse forest stand of different character with up to 200 year old beech and oak.
