    Tips

    In Bad Bentheim almost everything revolves around sandstone. Many of the works of art in public spaces are either made of sandstone or are directly related to it. At the castle park there is the sandstone museum.

      Beautiful and somehow funny sculpture, the Kuhlkerl stands at the back of the Bad Bentheim Castle. It was erected as a monument and is intended to commemorate the workers who toiled in the so-called hollows and quarried the well-known Bentheim sandstone there.

        The sculpture is intended to depict a worker dismantling sandstone.

                The sculpture is reminiscent of the workers in the quarries around Bad Bentheim.

                  Important souvenir of the workers in sandstone mining.
