バートエッセン周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

バート・エッセンは1075年に初めて言及されました。その肯定的な発展は、バート・エッセンの近くにあり、かつては独自の郡の sede であったヴィトラゲ城の設立と関連していると思われます。バート・エッセン自体は、おそらくヴィーヘン山脈の斜面にあるメイヤーホーフに由来しています。 特に旧市街のキルヒリングは非常に美しく、何よりも飲食店のせいで非常に居心地が良いです。また、ゾレナ（Solearena）のあるクアパーク（Kurpark）もお見逃しなく。

very nice little place with lots of half-timbered houses

According to legend, the name is based on a sad story that is related to Limburg opposite. According to this, there was also a castle here on the Nonnenstein belonging to the Count of Rieneck. His daughter, Hildburga, was in love with the impoverished Prince of Limburg, but her father was looking for a better groom. He organized a tournament in which the Prince of Limburg also took part in disguise. When he won, the Count was so angry that he challenged him to a duel. The two rode at each other and collided with their lances so badly that both died. In her grief, Hildburga founded a monastery on the Nonnenstein and became the first abbess. But when she died, the nuns became more and more greedy. The Rödinghausen people joined forces and stormed the monastery and tore it down. They left the tower standing as a warning. Well, at least the last part of the legend can be refuted, because the Nonnenstein was only built in 1897. It was modernized and slightly raised, but unfortunately that is hardly enough to let your gaze wander into the distance. The Nonnenstein is still worth a visit, even if only for the lovely rest areas here and the audio contribution via QR code. In the neighborhood of the Nonnenstein there is also the Bismarck fire column, which offers a dry shelter.

Just above Gesmold, the Hase forms a bifurcation. Here, the Else branches off from the Hase, causing around 2/3 of its water to flow into the Weser river system. It is still not clear whether this branch was artificially created to supply more water to the watermills of Gesmold Castle. A great environmental education site has been developed at the bifurcation since 2000. And there is also more information at the Terra Tip Bifurcation. Bifurcation Day takes place here every year on the first Sunday in May. Cyclists, families and nature lovers meet for an exciting festival with environmental education activities, concerts and delicacies. The extensive pastures around this striking place are grazed extensively and serve as a refuge for meadow birds such as lapwings, skylarks and also grass frogs.

Beautiful town with many half-timbered houses in the center

A bifurcation (fork) is the natural division of a river, in which one of the resulting branches does not reunite with the other, but moves on independently and connects with a foreign river. It occurs on plains where the watershed is very shallow and barely noticeable and represents a rare geographic feature.

Cozy place to stop off. Delicious honey beer. Events, small bites to eat. Unfortunately no longer an insider tip. Therefore often very busy, especially at weekends. Still worth a visit.

Real touring highlight. The Hase forks into the Hase (left) and flows into the Ems, and into the Else (right) and flows into the Weser. The water pump model can be used to reenact the causes of some mill wars between the rulers of Gesmold and the Osnabrück water mills.
