Bückeburg Hill Pool

Highlight • Rest Area

It was here, when I was a member of VFL Bad Nenndorf, the highlight of my career as a swimmer ... There were titles as a youngster and it was 1979!
From my memories at the time, it seems that the look of the outdoor pool has not changed much since then.
Unfortunately, many bathrooms have had to close since then. Among other things (and a long time ago) the very old outdoor pool in Bad Nenndorf!

Bückeburg New Palace

Highlight • Castle

1882 created the Hanoverian architect Hermann Schaedtler (* 1858, † 1931) on behalf of Prince George of Schaumburg (* 1817, † 1893), a first draft for the "New Palace". Architecturally, the building is primarily attributed to historicism. With this style of construction at that time the attempt should be made to revive traditional styles of architecture such as the neo-Romanesque, Neo-Gothic, Neo-Renaissance and the New Baroque to life again. The floor plan of the palace is an elongated rectangle. The large round tower rises 56 meters in total. On the southern side of the building (park side) is the balcony lined with balustrades. The built-up natural stones come from the Obernkirchen quarry, which is known worldwide for its very own texture and color of its sandstone. On the north side of the palace is the generously arranged main portal, whose windows as well as those of the upper hall are faded in the course of the return to antique building traditions with pilasters. From the magnificent foyer of the middle wing, the imposing main staircase leads to the upper floor of the upper storey. Framed by a total of 16 columns. When the client died in May 1893, the planning of the building was temporarily interrupted. But already on June 25, 1893 gave the prince widow Hermine Schaumburg-Lippe (* 1827, † 1910) the construction contract. Towards the end of 1896, the building was finally ready for occupancy in its entirety. In 1960, Dipl.Chem. Dr. Kurt Blindow of the palace as a school building, which was sold in 1969 by the Prince of Schaumburg -Lippe to the family Blindov. To this day, the Palais serves the schools. Kurt Blindow as a training center for natural-technical assistants.

Bückeburg Helicopter Museum

Highlight • Monument

The key factor in the creation of the museum was the nearby Army Aviation School, today's International Helicopter Training Center, which has been stationed at the Bückeburg Army Airfield since 1960.

The beginnings of the museum go back to 1961. The then sergeant major and helicopter pilot Werner Noltemeyer was commissioned by his commander to set up a small helicopter museum on the barracks grounds of the Army Aviation School at the airfield in Achum, today's Bückeburg Army Airfield. Over the years, the aviation industry has provided visual aids for the small museum. The museum could only be used for official purposes as it was located in the military security area. It was only accessible to soldiers, special guests and registered school classes in the area.

In 1970 the museum moved to the center of Bückeburg, and the city made the Münchhausen-Burgmannshof available for the ever-growing, extensive collection of helicopters. On June 9, 1971, the Helicopter Museum was inaugurated there and thus accessible to the general public. The exhibition area of the museum was expanded in the years 1978 to 1980 by a 2,000 square meter extension.

In June 2011 - just in time for the 40th anniversary of the Helicopter Museum - the extension built in a modern architectural style was opened to the public after the existing exhibition had been thoroughly revised and adapted to modern museum educational requirements.

Museum Bückeburg | EU-funded

Highlight • Historical Site

The Bückeburg Museum, which opened in 1905, is one of the oldest museums in the Weser area. The house in which it is housed is already worth seeing. The permanent exhibition, which was modernized and updated in 2022 with the help of EU funds, deals with the history of the city of Bückeburg and the former Principality of Schaumburg-Lippe. On the upper floor, the traditional costumes of Schaumburg and their meaning for the people are presented. Admission to the museum is free.
