    Unfortunately some bad paths, but the beautiful landscape on the Vechte makes up for it!

          History

          The name Emmelkamp is still commonly used in the colloquial dialect today. The High German name Emlichheim is derived from the original Low German forms Emminchem or Emmenheim. Since the time of the Thirty Years' War, High German has been used for documents in the County of Bentheim. Officially, the name was thus translated from the previously used Low German into High German as Emlichheim. Due to the close cultural and economic ties with the Netherlands, Dutch was the common language of communication, church service, and writing, particularly in the Lower County, from the 16th century onward. Until the 1820s, Dutch was used as the primary language in the county's schools. The colloquial language was the local Low German dialect, which was strongly influenced by the Dutch written language.

                There are great cycle paths directly along the Vechte.

                  The reflections in the Vechte river are always worth a photo.
