The Damme City Museum is housed in the former train station building. It is run by the Local History and Beautification Association. Since its opening in 1992, the various exhibitions have focused on significant periods of local and regional history, from the earliest settlements to the more recent history of Damme's iron ore mining. https://www.damme.de/Kultur-Freizeit/Kultur/Stadtmuseum/

The most striking example of public art is the Damme Sculpture Trail. Diverse artworks in the city center invite visitors to linger and contemplate. These include figures by nationally renowned artists, as well as works such as the "Fool's Column," one of Damme's landmarks, which was created by students of the Damme Secondary School and erected in 1999. A total of 44 sculptures are now located at 37 locations in Damme's city center. This is likely the largest open-air art exhibition in the entire Weser-Ems region. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damme_(D%C3%BCmmer)

When walking through the city, it is worth taking a stroll through the attractive St. Viktor Cemetery in Damme to get some distance from the hustle and bustle and find some peace and quiet.

The town of Damme lies between Lake Dümmer and the Damme Hills. The wooded hills above the town center and the vast moorlands, which extend to the lake in the east, embed the town in a distinctive landscape with a unique flora and fauna. The town's history, stretching back some 6,600 years, can be explored in the town museum. Housed in the old train station building, the permanent exhibition provides information about the first traces of settlement, the almost 600-year-long sovereignty dispute between the Prince-Bishops of Münster and Osnabrück over the Damme region, and about iron ore mining, which was enormously important for the region in the mid-20th century. Modern art has also found its way into the region with a sculpture trail that winds through the town center. The centerpiece of the exhibition, however, is the history of the Damme Carnival. People here have been celebrating it in various forms and with a host of carnival-like peculiarities since the Middle Ages. https://www.dammer-berge.de/urlaubsregion/urlaubsorte/stadt-damme.php
