The Weser port of Nienburg is closely linked to the city's economic and urban development and exemplifies the importance of the Weser River as a transport and trade route. Nienburg recognized its advantageous location on a navigable stretch of the river early on, leveraging its role in transporting goods and conducting trade. The port evolved as a transshipment point between river shipping and the hinterland, contributing significantly to the city's prosperity. The Weser port experienced a period of great importance, particularly in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Agricultural products, building materials, timber, and other goods were loaded and transported here. The port was a major employer and a vibrant hub where ship owners, merchants, and craftsmen converged. Simultaneously, it shaped the city's image as a confident Weser River trading center. With the transformation of transportation structures and the increasing importance of road and rail, the Weser port gradually lost its central economic function during the 20th century. Nevertheless, it has been preserved as an important infrastructural and historical site. Parts of the port area were transformed into areas for leisure, recreation and urban use, while the proximity to the Weser river remained a defining feature.

The Köhlerberge region is an inland dune landscape, formerly covered in heathland, located south of the town of Nienburg. Around the end of the 19th century, this landscape was reforested with pine trees by the forester Köhler. Over time, the typical mixed birch and oak forest developed here.

Nienburg offers two absolute highlights. It begins and ends with an almost medieval town, and to the west of the town, on the Weser River, lies a nature reserve of renaturalized gravel pits, which is truly something special. This area is worth a visit at any time of year.
