Lügenbrücke Over the Steingraben

Highlight • Bridge

The name of the bridge goes back to a legend that is mainly known to the long-time residents. Thereafter, children were threatened that the bridge would collapse if they lied before walking over it.

Lake Bordesholm is a well-known local recreation destination.
The name "Bordesholm" is derived from the words "Bard" (Middle Low German for shore) and "Holm" (Middle Low German for island).

While it served as a source of food and drinking water for a long time, it is now used primarily for recreational purposes. Hunters and gatherers left evidence of human activities around the lake as early as the Neolithic period. 4,000 years later, people settled there. The monastery church on the northern shore of the lake was originally on an island. But a drop in the lake level, the cause of which is still unknown, connected the island to the shore. The adjacent cliff meadows are evidence of this event; The former lake bed is visible through drilling, and the former lake terraces are also
