At 63 meters, the Hülser Berg is the highest natural elevation in the city of Krefeld and is located about two kilometers north-east of the village of Hüls, which was incorporated in 1975. In publications and reports from the time before the incorporation, one also finds the term "Hülser Berg im Kempener Land".
There are so-called clay pits all over the hill: Round pits in the ground with a diameter of 10 to 20 meters bear witness to the former quarrying sites of the clay diggers, who supplied the pot and pan bakers (potters and manufacturers of roof tiles) with raw materials for their production. From the 17th to the 19th century, Hüls was one of the most important pot baking villages on the left bank of the Lower Rhine.
In the period from 1600 to 1800 there was an execution site on the Huelser Berg, the "Galgenberg". It was located where the railway line, now called Schluff, intersects the northwestern foothills of the Hueler Berg. Here robbers and criminals were executed on the gallows or by beheading. Executions of alleged witches also took place here.
Fallow deer, wild boar and red deer enclosures have been set up on the southern edge of the Hueler Berg."
