Bordesholm Lake and Monastery Church

Highlight • Lake

The Bordesholmer See is a worthwhile excursion destination in many ways. The idyllic circular cycle path around the lake is six kilometers long. This beautiful route includes the Bordesholmer monastery, many small bays to linger in with a wonderful view of the lake, a relaxing area of forest and various bathing areas.
There is a small sandy beach, a pier, a bathing island and a sunbathing area at the outdoor swimming pool on Bordesholmer See. Admission is free. The Seeterrassen café restaurant at the bathing establishment is open all year round and has a wonderful view of the lake.

By the way: The name Bordesholm comes from the settlement information given by the monks at that time. The first written information was Bardesholm (1302), Bard = mnd. Bank and Holm = mnd. Island.

Shortly:
- Complete hike / drive possible, 6 km, approx. 90 min.
- Length: about 1.2 km, width: about 800 m
- Circumference: approx. 5 km
- max.depth: 8 m

Monastery Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The Canons' Monastery, founded by Vicelin in Neumünster in 1125, moved to Bordesholm in 1330. The canons made an island in the Bordesholmer lake land-proof by means of three dams and built a church and monastery on it. The monastery church on Lindenplatz is the oldest existing monument in Bordesholm - built between 1230 and 1510.
