The Old Church of the Holy Cross in Eickeloh was donated in 1296 by the noble von Hodenberg family after several fatal accidents occurred while crossing the Aller River to attend church. It served as a village church until 1868 and was then converted into the burial place of the von Hodenberg family after a new building was constructed. The Gothic brick building features a groin vault in the chancel, a wood-beamed ceiling in the nave, and a largely original oak roof truss dating from 1351. After the church fell into increasing disrepair in the late 19th and 20th centuries, it was extensively restored in the 1990s, during which consecration crosses and pre-Reformation paintings were discovered. Today, it is listed as a historic monument in the Lower Saxony Monument Atlas and is considered a historically significant landmark of the town.

The St. Matthew's Chapel in Bothmer was founded in 1610 by Abbot Conrad von Bothmer, based on a donation from Canon Otto von Bothmer. It initially served as a place of worship for both the castle and the congregation before being closed in 1791. The building was subsequently used as a granary for almost two centuries. It was not until 1981 that a comprehensive restoration was undertaken by Günther von Bothmer, with the support of the church, the district, and the monastery chamber. Today, the chapel is occasionally used for services and weddings.

The church will be renovated until autumn 2025 and therefore cannot be visited.

The old needle weir with a lock is located near Hademstorf. At one point (in the upper water of the lock) you can still clearly see the ramps for the old ferry; this was right next to it for a long time and we were even ferried across on it in the 80s. Over the Hansa Dam and the old oil bridge you pass 2 horse-head pumps (one is somewhat hidden at the level of the visible pump in a path about 200 m away).

The beautiful old Bachstein Chapel of St. Matthäi in Bothmer is worth a short stop.

Every change of use for nature makes sense... create habitats instead of reducing them... keep it up!
