슈웜슈테트 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

A pleasant path along the Bothmer gravel pit with a small lake access point serving as a viewing point. Ideal for a pleasant break in nature.

Moving the paddleboat is rather difficult at low water levels, but not impossible. The lock appears to be very well-maintained, unlike the weir...

At the site of the former "Hansa" oil field near Hademstorf in the Allermarsch region, approximately 160,000 tons of crude oil were produced between 1941 and 1970. Today, two restored horsehead pumps, installed on the foundations of the "Hansa 6" and "Hansa 9" production sites, commemorate this technical history. The pumps were used to bring oil to the surface from depths of up to 1,350 meters. Together with the historic oil bridge, they represent significant evidence of the regional oil boom—well-documented by the Aller-Leine Valley Navigator and open to the public as a technical monument.

The lock was built in 1914 to secure the fairway for the extensive shipping that supplied coal and fodder to the villages and towns upstream.

Oil deposits in Hademstorf At a depth of 1000 m beneath Hademstorf there is an oil deposit that is one of the smallest in northern Germany. It was formed under a salt dome overhang. This oil deposit was created when chalk was dragged up by the salt rise. In this part, under the so-called salt dome transition, oil has accumulated in the pore space of a sandstone. A total of 160,000 tons of oil was extracted from these oil deposits between 1941 and 1970. Oil was also extracted from other deposits in villages in the area, such as Eilte and Ahrensheide.
