벤반은 유럽에서 폐쇄된 철도 노선을 따라 조성된 가장 긴 자전거 도로 중 하나입니다. 3개국을 통과하며, 도로는 완전히 포장되어 있고 경사가 거의 없습니다.

This small stone chapel in Strauch was built by the villagers, but the exact dates of its construction are unclear. Originally, another building in Strauch served as a chapel from 1850 until it was expanded into a church (St. Matthias) in 1922 to serve the growing population.

In 1348, a squire named "von Hausen" is documented as having come to this area. In the 16th century, the moated castle passed from the noble family "von Hausen" to "von Berg" to Bens. Through inheritance and marriage, the castle came into the possession of Dietrich Kolff, but the Kolff family line died out in 1832. The castle had been repeatedly expanded up to that point and was later divided into two estates. Today it serves as a hotel and restaurant.
