Anyone traveling as a pilgrim only needs to show their pilgrim ID at the entrance, and the entrance fee to the park is no longer applicable. There is also a pilgrim's stamp in the church.

THE highlight of the whole region is the former imperial abbey and residence Corvey. Founded in 822 as a Benedictine Order, it mutated in 1834 to the castle and has since been owned by the ducal family of Ribera. For a visit to the world heritage site you should bring time. The proposal for a "short program" would be a visit to the former monastery church, today the Catholic parish church of St. Stephen and Vitus.

Corvey Castle with the Westwerk World Heritage Site, the former abbey church and the civitas are definitely worth seeing, but you also need time!
