Worth a visit, well worth the experience
Unique and diverse landscapes
Relax with us in one of the largest nature parks in Germany with its unique and varied scenery. Over 70% of the nature park's area is woodland with diverse and sometimes rare plants. A fantastic climate giving you room to breathe.
Natural monuments and historic events
European history was written in Kalkriese in 9 A.D. when the Germanics defeated the Roman inhabitants in the Battle of Teutoburg under Varus. The most well-known natural monuments include "Saurierspuren" (dinosaur tracks) near Bad Essen-Barkhausen and the "Bifurcation" near Melle-Gesmold.
Half-timbered buildings and mills
Many castles from the Middle Ages can be found in the Osnabrück region. Typical for the landscape are the beautiful half-timbered buildings which are heaped in history. The villages and enchanting historical regional centres with their lovingly restored half-timbered buildings houses from the 17th and 18th centuries as well as the water and windmills are some of the most striking sights.
Leisure activities and healing spas
The Osnabrück region lets you discover an abundance of hiking, cycling and water routes. Numerous spa visitors make the most of nature's natural healing powers in the hydropathical, saltwater and heated saltwater health spas of the Osnabrück region.
Geological diversity
From a geological and soil science point of view the Osnabrück region has a lot to offer. There is hardly another region where so many types of soil, stone and rock are to be found in such a small area. All geological formations and soil types known to Lower Saxony can be found here -and even mud-flats.
