Lievendaal is a former castle and recognized knight's estate near Amerongen, municipality of Utrechtse Heuvelrug, in the Dutch province of Utrecht.

In 1419, Jan van Driebergen, bastard son of Willem van Abcoude, was granted a farmstead and ten morgen of land near Amerongen by his cousin Jacob van Gaasbeek. The fief book from 1498 speaks of a 'stone house with farmstead with all its tympanum and with ten margins of land ... stretching with one end on the spyckdyck [and with the other end on the] common street of the village'. In 1536, the estate was recognized as a knight's estate by the States of Utrecht.

In 1646/47, Roelant Roghman made two drawings of Lievendaal, which had already fallen into ruin.
