The Liedberger Landgasthaus takes groups of 20 to 140 guests for meetings, presentations, weddings, birthdays, christenings and receptions, spread over three event rooms with a flexible layout. The inn sits in Liedberg, a village in the town of Korschenbroich between Neuss, Düsseldorf and Cologne, in a three-winged brick courtyard that once housed a brewery.
Seminars and company events
Business bookings cover meetings and presentations, and the house also hosts exhibitions and concerts. Room layout, seating and technology can all be adjusted, so a morning meeting in a smaller room can be followed by lunch in the restaurant. The kitchen serves without a break from 11 a.m., which lets a working day keep its own timing rather than the restaurant's. Parking is free, a practical point for teams driving in from the Rhine cities.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings, christenings, birthdays and receptions are listed among the private events. The Hofgarten, the courtyard garden, gives a setting for drinks and photos in good weather, and the deep sandstone vaulted cellars from the brewery era are used for exhibitions such as the house's Advent show. On Mondays and Tuesdays, when the restaurant is closed, the inn takes private group bookings on request, which gives a party the whole house.
Rooms and capacities
The event spaces are the Saal, the Klubraum and the Poststube, which together cover groups from 20 to 140 people. The restaurant adds the Wintergarten-Restaurant Picknick and the Liedberger Stuben, and the Hofgarten provides outdoor space. The site does not give a capacity for each room, so the best split of rooms for a given group is worth asking about in your request.
Catering
Food comes from the inn's own kitchen, with a lunch menu, an afternoon menu and an evening à la carte card that includes beef tartare and cod with a saffron mustard crust. For groups, a section on buffets and set menus lays out the options, and food, drink and wine lists are published. For the house's 25th anniversary, the kitchen built menus from the dishes it entered in the tour de menu over the years.
History and setting
The building is an open, three-winged courtyard from the early 19th century, built as the Brauerei Schieffer, with deep vaulted cellars in sandstone. The two-story main house keeps five window bays, sandstone sills and a sandstone frame around the old wooden door, and the former brewery and barn wings have changed little on the outside. The Wilms-Merten family, innkeepers in Liedberg since the mid-18th century, bought the courtyard in 1898 and ran it as an inn with a hall, a bowling alley and outdoor areas. Since summer 2001, Simone Schmitt, a great-granddaughter of the family, and her husband Peter Schmitt have run the restored and enlarged house. Guided tours of Liedberg and its history can be added to an event.
Getting there
The address is Landstraße 19, 41352 Korschenbroich. Free parking is on site, and Düsseldorf Airport is the nearest major airport. The inn is open Wednesday to Sunday from 11 a.m.
