Adolf I of Berg, count of Berg from 1077 until 1082, Vogt of Werden, Deutz, Berg and Gerresheim (died 1086). He was the son of Adolf II of Lotharingia count of Keldachgau, Vogt of Deutz (1002–1041).

The dynasty can be traced back to Adolf I at the beginning of the eleventh century especially by following the succession of the advocates of Deutz monastery across the Rhine, opposite Cologne. From that point forth the succession of the counts of Berg is well enough documented.

Adolf I of Berg left one son:

  • Adolf II of Berg-Hövel, count of Berg, count of Auelgau and Siegburg, Vogt of Werden, founded the Altenberg Abbey (died 1090 or 1106).
