Schnackpunkt 1 Rovekamps Damm Groß Minnelage

Highlight • Rest Area

I'll tell you later ... Well, now: Very nice rest area in an open area with an elaborately designed information board The Ackerschnacker Tour is an approximately 52-kilometer tour through Artland. At the various stations with and without a rest area, anecdotes and stories from the Ackerschnacker are "distributed" by means of "sounding information boards" osnabruecker-land.de/tour/ackerschnacker-tour At this point there is Schnackpunkt 1 - man can take a break here and get in the mood for the tour and the landscape on the waiting board. Point 2 is Everdings Mühle, about 2.5 kilometers from here in a south-westerly direction. On the day I drove by here, I noticed a cross put up by farmers in the area, whereupon it was complained that water was becoming scarce in this area, which was once so blessed with water. With all the other beauty here: that's unsettling.

Transrapid TR09 at Kemper Facility in Nortrup

Highlight • Monument

In September 2017, the last train of the decommissioned Transrapid test facility Emsland, the Transrapid 09 (TR09), was installed on the company premises. The Kemper family, who came from Hermann Kemper, the inventor of the magnetic levitation railway, had bought it for € 200,001. The three sections of the train, each 25 m long, are to be used as conference and exhibition rooms on the history of the Transrapid

Kessen Ülk and Minchen Fountain

Highlight • Monument

The inseparable couple kessen Ülk and Minchen, actually Gerhard and Wilhelmine Kesse, were Quakenbrücker originals. [5].

In the last years of their lives, the lovebirds lived in the city poor house on the extended Friedrichstrasse and earned their living by weaving baskets. They advertised their goods as peddlers, going from door to door and "not averse to a good drink".

Ülk owed his nickname to his body odor, which as a vagabond and day laborer probably placed little value on hygiene. “De stinkt as een Ülk”, it smells like a polecat, is a Low German expression.

November 1, 2024,Quakenbrück - Transrapid Nortrup - Menslage

Parking in Quakenbrück, e.g. at the Artlandarena.

The café at Kirchwinkel in Menslage was unfortunately closed due to renovation work.

Small Artland tour in the dreary All Saints' Day grey.
