Dollart Dike Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

Actually, the highlight should be a section of the route that describes the cycle path to the left of the Ems along the dollart to the Dutch border. Seen in this way, the route is definitely attractive for cyclists and, incidentally, also easy to drive on.

View of Ditzum

Highlight • Viewpoint

A nice manageable fishing village. There is a lot to discover and explore in the small streets. There are many restaurants and cafes that invite you to take a break.

Ditzum Windmill

Highlight • Monument

Nice gallery Dutchman in the middle of Ditzum, which is not easy to photograph optimally because of the narrow streets. It is worth climbing the mill when it is open. The view of the place from here is wonderful. So be sure to go to the gallery, if it is open. On the ground floor there is all sorts of things to be found in the local country women’s browsing room.
The first mill in ditzum was built in 1769, but burned down in a devastating village fire in 1882. A year later the new mill was up again. But luck didn’t last forever here either: a fire during World War II damaged the good piece considerably. A makeshift repair after the end of the war was not very convincing.
It is thanks to the village renewal program of the state of Lower Saxony in the 1990s that the municipality of Jemgum acquired the privately owned mill and, with the help of the mill association founded in 1998, built the mill as it can be seen today on the existing masonry. The resourceful Ditzumers obtained the knowledge from a broken mill in Dithmarschen. The gallery, mill cap and the wings, on the other hand, had to be rebuilt. Since then, the monument has been functional again with one grinding process and can be viewed.

Ditzum church and bell tower

Highlight • Religious Site

The beautiful and old church from the 12th century with a hexagonal tower, together with the harbor and the mill, has a decisive influence on the face of the tranquil harbor town at the foot of the Dollart. A visit is not only worthwhile from the outside, but also from the inside.

Historic Harbour of Weener

Highlight • Historical Site

The historic harbor is part of the old town of Weener. Together with the beautiful houses from the 18th and 19th centuries, this results in a picturesque cityscape. A really pretty little town well worth a visit.
