라우더펜 최고의 사이클링 경로

역사적으로 흥미로운

Langholter Meer와 Rhauder Meer는 니더작센 주의 북서쪽에 위치한 Leer 지역의 경관 보호 구역입니다.

베스트라우더페엔에 있는 복음주의 루터교 호프눙스키르케는 1848년에 봉헌되었지만, 처음에는 탑이 없었습니다. 탑은 1886년에 완공되었습니다. 높이가 52미터로 동프리지아에서 가장 높은 교회 탑입니다. 교회에는 상선 "호프눙"의 모형이 걸려 있습니다. 이 모형은 공동체의 해운과의 연관성을 상기시켜 줍니다.

Cool, such a big ship on the small canal. It's beautiful to look at, even from the outside.

Did you know that a sufficient water level was essential for the once busy shipping traffic on the fen canals? Therefore, locks, also called "Verlaate," were built. These prevented the tides from influencing the inner canal system and ensured that ships always had sufficient water under their keels. Ostrhauderfehn once had two important locks: one at the end of the main fen canal near the former "Verlaatshus" (a former barn) and another at the 1st South Bay, which maintained the water level in the upper fen area. However, in the 1950s, both locks were removed and replaced with brick weirs. In 1990, a historic box lock was rebuilt at the end of the main fen canal as part of the "Fehn Program." This modern lock system is equipped with double flood and ebb gates and can accommodate ships and pleasure craft up to 55 meters long and 5.4 meters wide. Thanks to this innovation, Ostrhauderfehn once again has a direct connection to East Frisia's extensive inland waterway network! This lock is often mistakenly called the Holterfehn Lock. This lock is also located directly on the tour route and is easily accessible. Several benches are available, inviting you to listen to the sound of the water.

For centuries, floods and flood disasters have repeatedly occurred in the river valleys, especially in spring and autumn. Storm surges pushed enormous volumes of water from the North Sea into the rivers, often resulting in flooding lasting weeks. The damage to agriculture was enormous. Until the first half of the last century, attempts to control the water overload with wind-dependent water pumping mills were unsuccessful. Only the construction of the Leda Barrage near Leer in 1954 and the associated reorganization of drainage in the Leda-Jümme area brought a sustainable solution. Today, modern pumping stations with powerful, electronically controlled pumps ensure a constant water level in the lowland areas, some of which lie below sea level.

The East Frisian hiking trail follows the old narrow-gauge railway line from Rhauderfehn to Ihrhove on natural ground and then via Leer to Dornum.

Beautiful route
