Piening Forge Metal Construction Sculptures, Seester
Highlight • Monument
For over 40 years, the master blacksmith has been working iron in his workshop over the fire of his forge, which can reach temperatures of up to 1,400°C. He builds farm gates, ship accessories and rose arches and shoes the hooves of sport and leisure horses with new horseshoes. And Piening always finds time for artistic sculptures such as spider webs or a blacksmith with hammer and anvil.

Lüders Inn and Hall
Highlight • Historical Site
Due to its location right next to the church, the Lüder'sche Inn was often used for funeral ceremonies. But the house was also well attended before and after the Sunday services. Because the footpaths were often undeveloped at the time, it was customary for the villagers to exchange their dirty shoes for shoes they had brought with them that had been polished to a high shine before going to church and to put on their everyday shoes again for the way back. The inn was exactly the right place for this, as it also offered a fortifying grog in winter and a cold beer in summer. But family celebrations, singing balls, school festivals and the monthly meetings of the local council also took place near Lüders for a long time and the village's volunteer fire department was founded here in 1912. After the Second World War, Erna Thies and her husband Wilhelm took over the business from her mother Regine Lüders, but after 1960 they concentrated on hawking, while the restaurant lost its importance and the hall building fell into disrepair. In 1971, the Seester parish decided to purchase the restaurant and hall, first renovating the restaurant and later also the hall building. The old restaurant was initially converted into a children's playroom and church office and later expanded into a kindergarten. The hall is still available for church and private celebrations and events. (Source: Shield)

Kurzenmoor Lock
Highlight • Monument
In 1764 the lock was called the “Stone Lock”. The sluice was already made of clinker bricks at that time.
Due to the construction and commissioning of the new steam pumping station in 1895, the nearby "Wischer Schleuse" lost its function and was closed. The Kurzenmoorer Schleuse, on the other hand, was enlarged again with a massive clinker brick building and made deeper in order to be able to continue to perform its function. The Wisch-Kurzenmoor lock community emerged from the Wisch and Kurzenmoor lock communities.
Unfortunately, the performance of the steam pumping station did not meet the high expectations. Even the replacement of the steam engine with a powerful diesel engine in the 1920s could not change this. In 1955/56 a new pumping station was built right next to the steam pumping station, the buildings of which have been preserved to this day. The lock was shut down in 1965 after the new Kurzenmoor pumping station* was completed. (Source: Shield)
