St. Bartholomew's Church is rarely open outside of service hours. It can be viewed from the outside at any time and can be walked around. The churchyard, shaded by ancient trees, is a wonderful place of tranquility.

In the center of Rödinghausen, the Protestant Church of St. Bartholomew stands prominently on a hill. The church, essentially late Gothic, dates back to 1520; the west tower is considerably older. The church received its present appearance during the extensive renovation and expansion of 1893. The two massive neo-Gothic transepts form a stylistic unity with the older parts of the building, so that today, old and new are barely distinguishable. The first wooden predecessor church on this site most likely dates back to the mid-9th century (851/853), and the first stone building dates back to the 12th century. Particularly worth seeing inside are the processional cross (14th century), the winged altar from 1520, the Renaissance pulpit from 1588, and the apostle figures (16th century).

Yes, well there...it's fun to drive the roads...

On the descent you get up to a decent speed 🚴‍♂️

Cute little train station

The structure stretches over the railway tracks in a sweeping arch. It is made of large sandstone blocks. The Ravensberg coat of arms with the three rafters adorns the keystone on the southern side of the bridge, the coat of arms of the Prince-Bishopric of Minden with the two crossed keys adorns the keystone on the northern side of the bridge. A wrought iron railing spans the entire length of the bridge on both sides. The “New Mill” railway bridge is a special feature of the Rödinghausen community’s monuments in that it is still completely unchanged in its original state. This also includes, for example, the path made of rammed earth and stone, which was laid out in 1899, still completely preserved. Source: baukunst-nrw.de

The church of Rödinghausen has been documented since 1233, but probably dates back to the 9th century. At this time, the Franks advanced into Saxon territory and probably built the first church here in place of a Saxon cult sanctuary.
