Nice short climb, not too steep

Caution! Down at the intersection, the road gets very bad. I don't know how you can call these "good roads."

very nice route - good roads, little car traffic

The 1.3-kilometer climb starts off leisurely but then becomes steeper in the upper section. You'll climb 70 meters in altitude before stopping for a refreshment stop in Tecklenburg.

The chapel of the old St. John's Cemetery opposite is not the Luther Church.

At the end of the Thirty Years' War in 1648, it was decreed that Osnabrück should henceforth be governed alternately by a Catholic and a Protestant prince-bishop. In 1662, the Lutheran Welf Ernst August of Brunswick-Lüneburg took over this office. In order to meet his representative wishes and at the same time limit the city of Osnabrück's efforts to become independent, the Prince-Bishop's Palace on Neuer Graben was built between 1667 and 1675 in the Baroque style. The four-wing complex had a private chapel and a ballroom in the main building with its four floors. The design of the Baroque garden according to the plans of the well-known garden architect Martin Charbonnier was the responsibility of the Prince-Bishop's wife in particular, who incorporated the impressions she had gathered in France. With the abolition of the old empire in 1803, the castle lost its function as a prince-bishop's residence and was used for administrative purposes from then on. The Osnabrück castle was badly damaged by bombing raids in the Second World War, only the outer walls remained. The building was rebuilt by 1953. The castle garden was redesigned on its original site by Prof. Werner Lendholt. After the Pedagogical University initially used the castle, the premises were integrated into the new University of Osnabrück in 1973, which has had its administrative headquarters in the castle since 1974. The departments of music/musicology and Protestant theology are also housed in the main building. Today, the former residence of the Osnabrück prince-bishops is characterized by student life. https://erleben.osnabrueck.de/de/stadt-erleben/sehenswertes/schloss-osnabrueck/

Here is the explanatory plaque: The synagogue on Rolandstrasse, retrospectively referred to as the Old Synagogue, was the synagogue of the Jewish community in Osnabrück in the first half of the 20th century. The synagogue was set on fire on November 9, 1938, during Kristallnacht. Its demolition was ordered on the same day.
