メテレンの湖・トップ20

🌳 The Steinfurt Bagno and its adjacent lake are the heart of recreation in Steinfurt. The park is a historic English landscape garden, laid out in the 18th century by the Counts of Bentheim and Steinfurt, and is now freely accessible around the clock.

Name The name is based on the centuries-old field name Driland ("dri" = three), which was already recorded on maps around 1865 and refers to the meeting of Westphalia, the former county of Bentheim and the Dutch province of Overijssel.

Danger always floats along Metelen/Heek-Nien... Summer temperatures like those of the past few days and the relatively good water quality of the three large lakes in the municipality attract many water lovers to swim. In doing so, they ignore bans - because, as Andreas Joost from the municipality emphasizes, none of the lakes are officially designated as bathing waters. The accident last weekend at Strönfeldsee (Heeker See) showed how dangerous swimming in an unsupervised place and especially on quarry lakes with their cliff edges and sometimes unpredictable currents can be.

Bagno is always worth it

Burgsteinfurt Castle, also known as Steinfurt Castle, is a moated castle on the edge of the old town of Burgsteinfurt, a district of the Münsterland town of Steinfurt. It is the oldest moated castle in Westphalia and stands on an almost circular island surrounded by the Steinfurter Aa. Today, consisting of three building complexes, the upper castle, the lower castle and the castle mill, the complex has been repeatedly rebuilt and expanded over the course of its eventful history.

Great option for hiking
