Here in the center of Rüthen you can take a break in one of the cafes and / or pubs. The historic town center is framed by numerous half-timbered houses.

The 800-year-old mountain and Hanseatic town is a popular resort due to its location on the upper reaches of the Möhne and its wooded surroundings. Rüthen is 25 km from Lppstadt, 30 km from the district town of Soest and 20 km from Meschede with good connections to the A44 and Paderborn Lippstadt Airport (15 km). Here, visitors can enjoy nature, history and culture at every turn. The symbol of the city is the water tower, which can be seen from afar.

The term "Rüthen donkey" has served the Rüthen neighborhood for generations as an ironic, caricaturing term for the town's citizens and their (supposedly) specific character traits. This originally mocking title comes from an ancient tradition of the regional vernacular outside the city walls.
