The earliest evidence of human settlement in the Beckum area dates from the Neolithic Age, from which the gallery grave of Beckum-Dalmer south of the city has been preserved. In the early Middle Ages, the area around Beckum was populated by Germanic tribes. Several grave finds from the period 600-800 AD, as well as a rampart south of Beckum, bear witness to this. In 1959, a princely tomb was uncovered during construction work. Rich grave goods were found in it, such as horse skeletons and valuable weapons.

The market square with its historic facades and fountains is very attractive. There is also a drinking fountain there 😉

Beckum has a beautiful marketplace with picturesque house facades in the town center. Benches next to a fountain offer a place to rest.
