Limberg, Mountain summit in Lower Saxony, Germany.

Limberg is a mountain summit in Lower Saxony that rises about 194 meters above the surrounding flat landscape. The peak is covered with forest and provides views across the region from its top.

Coal was mined at the Karlsstollen on the Limberg from 1874 to 1903, extracting Wealden coal from the Hilterberg field; deep shafts yielded about 9,000 tonnes a year, and the 920-metre adit had levels at 75, 105 and 155 metres. On 28 June 1910 the airship LZ 7 "Deutschland" crashed into the conifer forest here after engine failures and a storm; nobody was hurt. In 1911 the Teutoburger-Wald-Gebirgsverein set a granite boulder with a bronze plaque by sculptor Heinrich Wulfertage at the site.

The Zeppelinstein, a granite boulder with a bronze plaque by sculptor Heinrich Wulfertage, marks the 1910 crash site. Bad Iburg regularly organizes guided hikes past the stone. Local tellings, such as Heinrich Künne's account in Iburger Platt, keep the event in collective memory.

The Limberg is reached by the partly unpaved road "Zum Limberg" from Bad Iburg, which branches east off the Osnabrücker Straße (B 51) and is closed to public traffic; a second "Zum Limberg" comes west from Wellendorf in the municipality of Hilter. Kreisstraße 333 runs along the northern foot, and a street called "Am Limberg" approaches from Kloster Oesede. Signposted hiking trails opened the wooded summit only during the 20th century.

Near the Zeppelinstein memorial, traces of the Karlsstollen colliery survive: spoil heaps, air shafts and the pulley wheel of a wire-rope aerial tramway. Wealden coal was mined here from 1874 to 1903, with about 9,000 tonnes a year raised from shafts and a 920-metre adit.
