The Vechtesteine are also very beautiful, they give the river something special. If you are brave and big enough (because of the length of your stride), you can also go over there.

Old Town Hall, Schüttorf

Highlight • Historical Site

Schüttorf is the oldest town in the Grafschaft. Much of the old city wall is still visible and still surrounds much of the original core of the city. With the imposing church and the old town hall, the most striking buildings are located right next to each other.

Goat Fountain, Schüttorf

Highlight • Monument

The goat fountain memorial commemorates the earlier goat keepers who used to take their stubborn animals on their way to the buck station outside of town. The billy goats had to be kept out of town because of their strong odor. It used to be almost impossible for the textile workers to keep a cow. Goats, however, were cheaper and brought milk and cheese. I think the Osnabrück artist really did a good job here and created a vivid monument.
