🚲🏖️✨ The bench overlooking the Haddorfer Seen is a wonderful, small oasis of calm right on the shore of this beautiful recreational area. If you want to stretch your legs after an extensive ride through the Wettringen farmlands and simply let your soul dangle, this prime spot in the green offers just the right backdrop.

After Schüttorf was granted town privileges in 1295, a new riverbed was dug for the Vechte as part of the town's fortifications. On the left bank of the new Vechte, outside the town wall, a watermill was built at the latest in the 14th century. This rye mill, built of Bentheim sandstone, belonged to the Counts of Bentheim, who held the so-called mill privilege, i.e., the right to build mills. Gradually, a mill ensemble developed on the opposite side of the Vechte. This included an oil mill, a sawmill, and a tanning mill, which ground oak bark for the tanners. The sandstone foundations of the former mill complex, which was completely destroyed in a fire in 1928, are still present and visible. The Dutch painter Jacob van Ruisdael captured and popularized the "Drie Watermolen" (Three Watermills) in a sketch around 1650. The Princely Watermill was rebuilt in 1914. Today, it is a popular photographic motif in all four seasons and the venue for the traditional salute firing by the "Historisch I. Kompanie des Bentheimer Landwehrbataillons von 1814".

🚲✨ The fish ladder on the Steinfurter Aa in Wettringen is an impressive example of the successful renaturation of our local waters. Located directly at the historic weir, this modern fish passage system allows the inhabitants of the Steinfurter Aa to overcome obstacles safely and reach their natural spawning grounds.

🏠 The Kannegießerhaus in Rheine is one of the oldest and most architecturally significant townhouses in the city. It is located in the heart of the old town, right next to the parish church of St. Dionysius and the historic market square.
