20의 바트 에센가지 명소 & 주요 장소

According to legend, the name is based on a sad story that is related to Limburg opposite. According to this, there was also a castle here on the Nonnenstein belonging to the Count of Rieneck. His daughter, Hildburga, was in love with the impoverished Prince of Limburg, but her father was looking for a better groom. He organized a tournament in which the Prince of Limburg also took part in disguise. When he won, the Count was so angry that he challenged him to a duel. The two rode at each other and collided with their lances so badly that both died. In her grief, Hildburga founded a monastery on the Nonnenstein and became the first abbess. But when she died, the nuns became more and more greedy. The Rödinghausen people joined forces and stormed the monastery and tore it down. They left the tower standing as a warning. Well, at least the last part of the legend can be refuted, because the Nonnenstein was only built in 1897. It was modernized and slightly raised, but unfortunately that is hardly enough to let your gaze wander into the distance. The Nonnenstein is still worth a visit, even if only for the lovely rest areas here and the audio contribution via QR code. In the neighborhood of the Nonnenstein there is also the Bismarck fire column, which offers a dry shelter.

Just above Gesmold, the Hase forms a bifurcation. Here, the Else branches off from the Hase, causing around 2/3 of its water to flow into the Weser river system. It is still not clear whether this branch was artificially created to supply more water to the watermills of Gesmold Castle. A great environmental education site has been developed at the bifurcation since 2000. And there is also more information at the Terra Tip Bifurcation. Bifurcation Day takes place here every year on the first Sunday in May. Cyclists, families and nature lovers meet for an exciting festival with environmental education activities, concerts and delicacies. The extensive pastures around this striking place are grazed extensively and serve as a refuge for meadow birds such as lapwings, skylarks and also grass frogs.

Benkhausen Palace with Palace Park. The facility was largely renovated between 2010 and 2013. The park is freely accessible. There is a small circular hiking trail to the Mittelland Canal. There is coffee and cake in the Rentei. The vending machine museum is right next to the café.

Benkhausen Castle in the west of the Minden Lübbecke district

2 great highlights in one. Benkhausen Castle and the Automatenmuseum, both absolutely worth seeing. http://www.deutsches-automatenmuseum.de

A break in Renkhausen in the castle cafe is highly recommended

A bifurcation (fork) is the natural division of a river, in which one of the resulting branches does not reunite with the other, but moves on independently and connects with a foreign river. It occurs on plains where the watershed is very shallow and barely noticeable and represents a rare geographic feature.

A recommended tour. Automaten Museum is closed on Mondays
