Riepe Water Pumping Mill

Highlight • Structure

This mill is a new building from 1986. A water pumping mill (flutter) is used to drain the surrounding land. In this case it is only used to demonstrate the principle of water pumping.
At the moment, however, it has no wings, so you can just cycle past quickly.

Hi everyone - if you are planning your tour for Emden's north-eastern area - this is the right place for you. Under the Uphuser Luftbrücke / Riepster Weg - (crossing over the EMS-JADE-KANAL), you have perfect parking (gravel). Tours to the surrounding area can be started here ...

View of the Canal near North Sea Nature Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great view. Just be careful on the way here, as the path is not particularly wide and some people just stop and sit down 😄

Kesselschleuse, Emden

Highlight • Monument

This lock is like a crossing on the water. Here the ships can drive left, right or straight - really fascinating. This type of facility is unique in Europe and is a listed building.
