リューダースブルクの洞窟・トップ4

Seems more for the summer time... Today in December we found everything locked up 😢

From there you have a great view over the Elbtalaue. It's definitely worth it!

When we were here, it was unfortunately closed, but it was an exciting location.

Anyone who visits the Biosphaerium Elbtalaue can expect not only an aquarium landscape, a beaver facility and an exhibition all about the biosphere reserve with many interactive elements, but also a lookout tower that offers a view of the floodplain. It only costs €2 to enter and it's really worth it. As an integrated part of the overall system, you reach the viewing platform after a good 90 steps at a height of 20 meters. The modern steel construction was installed in the historic tower stump in 2002. This approach affected the historical substance as little as possible. The height of today's tower is based on the historical height, as far as it can be read from old drawings. The origins of the tower probably lie in the second half of the 13th century. Over the centuries it may have served as a defense and prison tower, but also to control the shipping on the Elbe that was within sight. After all, it was time to collect the Elbe toll. Today you climb the spiral staircase for pleasure and enjoy the fantastic view. http://www.biosphaerium.de/wir-ueber-uns/historisches-zum-schloss-bleckede.html

The viewing platform of the castle tower of Bleckede Castle offers a fantastic 360 degree view of the landscape and gives an idea of how well nature and culture can be experienced in and around Bleckede with plenty of space and expanse. The climb is well worth it and is included in the entry price of just €2 for the Biosphaerium. https://luene-info.de/termine/2020/september/bleckede.html

A visit to the beautiful museum is worthwhile

Nice castle, even better golf course ... the restaurant is also an opportunity for a coffee break 😉

The imposing manor house, which is now known as Lüdersburg Castle, goes back to an old medieval castle. What the castle looked like and who owned it is unknown. The town of Lüdersburg itself was once a small manor whose owners in all probability also built the castle. On the foundations of the castle - presumably it was demolished due to decay or had long since disappeared down to the foundations - today's Lüdersburg Castle was finally built in 1776. The manor house, together with the two cavalier houses, is not only a special gem in the former Principality of Lüneburg, but also the city's landmark. In the course of the 20th century, work began on restoring Lüdersburg Castle and the surrounding village. As practically the entire town is a listed building, this was a particularly difficult and costly task. In 1986, work began on converting the castle into a hotel with a golf course. The first golf course was completed as early as 1989, and a second was opened ten years later. In addition to the manor house itself, Lüdersburg Castle also includes the "pony shed" and an old sheep farm. Together with the castle cellar, they were included in the new usage concept of the house as a hotel. http://www.burgen-und-schloesser.net/niedersachsen/schloss-luedersburg/geschichte.html
