Tips from the Community

April 28, 2026, Teich bei Kloster Loccum

The Landwehrteiche in Loccum are part of the historic monastery landscape and are located near Loccum Abbey. They are part of a system of ditches, canals, ponds, and streams connected to the medieval monastery complex. These waterways shape the landscape and are part of the Kleiner Klosterlandschaftsweg, which leads to these mysterious and enchanted places.

The Hohenstein in the Süntel hills is a striking rock formation and one of the most popular viewpoints in the Weser Uplands. From the approximately 340-meter-high cliff, there is a sweeping view across the Weser Valley and the surrounding hills. The Hohenstein's rocks are made of sandstone and drop steeply southward into the valley. From the natural viewpoints, especially the so-called "pulpit," the course of the Weser River, which meanders through the landscape in wide bends, is clearly visible. The area is part of the Süntel Nature Reserve and provides habitat for numerous animal and plant species.

September 13, 2025, Luccaburg Memorial

Luccaburg Castle was an early medieval lowland castle near Loccum. The tower hill castle of the Counts of Lucca, dating from the 11th/12th century, is recognizable as a massive, round earthen mound. Parts of the 2 m wide circular wall are preserved. A Count Burchard of Lucca is mentioned in documents around 1113 and 1130. His daughter, Beatrice of Lucca, married Count Wilbrand of Hallermund, who thus became his successor and heir. In 1163, he donated the surrounding land to Cistercian monks for the establishment of Loccum Abbey. Luccaburg Castle can only be reached on foot or by bike.

Two forest benches invite you to take a break. The view extends over the Blutbach Valley.
