Tips from the Community

June 30, 2026, Former Border to the GDR

When you are there, a detour towards Helmstedt and Marienborn is worthwhile. One of the most important border crossings between the Federal Republic and the GDR used to be located there – today, the Helmstedt–Marienborn Border Crossing Memorial is there with well-preserved facilities, an exhibition, and original control areas. You get a very vivid impression of how strictly the border was secured back then.

A small tip: take a moment there and read the inscriptions carefully, if available – many of these monuments in the Drömling tell not only of the fallen, but also of how severely the small villages in the region were affected by the First World War. When you are there, it is also worth consciously perceiving the surroundings: the Drömling is today a very quiet, almost secluded landscape. This contrast between quiet nature and the place of remembrance often makes the visit particularly impressive.

The small weir on the Aller near Grafhorst is a rather inconspicuous, but important structure for regulating the water level of the Aller. It ensures that the river is controlled and dammed up, while also helping with flood protection in the region.

The Wasserburg Neuhaus is a well-preserved historic moated castle in northern Germany and a beautiful example of medieval architecture.

Good cycle paths. Suitable for children. Better to bring food and drinks. Castle visit only possible from the outside.

April 13, 2026, Jorgos am Kanal

The restaurant is located directly on the Mittellandkanal in the municipality of Rühen (near Wolfsburg-Vorsfelde). The outdoor area is particularly popular in summer, as you can sit directly on the bank and watch the ships go by. It is considered cozy and down-to-earth, often like a classic club-house restaurant (it is located directly at the sports field of SV Blau-Weiß Rühen) with a maritime flair due to its canal location.

The duck pond near Vorsfelde (often mentioned in connection with the Wendschott district or the Drömling) is a local body of water in Wolfsburg, located immediately north of the Mittelland Canal. It is part of an area that is important for both anglers and walkers. The pond is situated near the Allerdükers, which is the point where the river Aller is channeled under the Mittelland Canal. It lies nestled in the meadow landscape between the canal and the Vorsfelder Drömling. The area is characterized by canal dams, old trees, and walking paths that connect Vorsfelde with Wendschott.

The Allersee is the heart of the Allerpark in Wolfsburg and one of the region's most popular recreational areas. It is an artificially created lake that originated in the late 1960s during a diversion of the Aller river.
