The Schwinge bascule bridge was built in 1987. This road bascule bridge over the Schwinge River near Stade on the L111 is generally open daily from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., and upon request for shipping traffic. Passage is free of charge, but requires prior registration to cross the bridge. Important note: The bridge is designed for recreational boating, and shipping traffic has priority. It is recommended to contact the harbor master of the Stade city harbor before planning a passage, especially in adverse weather conditions, as short-notice changes may occur.

A fantastic cycling and hiking trail runs along the Schwinge Bridge, surrounded by beautiful nature. On a clear day, you can see the St. Cosmae church tower in Stade. The Stade marina is also located here.

The cycle path between Assel and Bützfleht is recommended and easy to cycle on.

A fantastic cycling route with rest stops amidst beautiful nature and expansive views across the fields to the Elbe 1 and Elbe 2 power lines. Because this route is so popular, additional rest areas have been built. It's also a great place for a hike. Since the route runs directly alongside the railway line, you can end your tour at any time and take the train back. Perhaps plan your trip accordingly.

Several new benches have been installed along this hiking and cycling trail. Information panels have also been erected. Highly commendable and recommended 👍🏼.

The Apensen Town Hall is not only an administrative building, but also a symbol of the history and development of the Apensen Collective Municipality. It is the administrative headquarters and reflects the municipal structure that emerged from the merger of the municipalities of Apensen, Beckdorf, and Sauensiek in 1972.

The present Apensen church celebrated its centenary in March 2010. It stands on the foundations of numerous older chapels and churches. The first one is believed to have been built here around the year 800. The first documented mention of a church dates back to 1329. This proves that the church has held a firm and very central position in Apensen for many centuries. Today, the parish includes many people from 14 villages. With 3,700 inhabitants, Apensen is the largest town in the parish district, and our church is located there. The congregation has a total of approximately 5,000 members, about half of whom live in Apensen. Over the course of a year, invitations are extended to over 80 church services and numerous devotional services, including in other villages such as Beckdorf, Wiegersen, Ottensen, and Ruschwedel.

The baroque hall church was built around 1700 from fieldstone and brick. The nave is pentagonal in the east. In the west there is a wooden bell tower, which was built in 1662 and is covered with an eight-sided, slate-covered, pointed helmet. The walls of the nave, which has a gable roof, are supported by buttresses.
