“Hike history in the center”

The historical hiking trail focuses primarily on the historical development of the still relatively young Senne community. It was not until 1715 that the Catholic parish of St. Johannes Nepomuk Hövelhof was founded here. This laid the foundation for the creation of the political community in 1807.
