Klütturm Observation Tower

Highlight • Monument

Hotel / Restaurant am Turm has been closed for years. At the tower kiosk there was only water and ice, no coffee, schnüff!

Hut-Hut's Rest

Highlight • Rest Area

Nice rest area. "Hut Hut's Ruh is located on the hiking trail" HM1 ", where there are about 20 benches and tables and invite you to a hiking break for larger hiking groups.The rest area is located directly on a 3 to 4 meter deep water-filled Erdfall with a diameter of about 10 meters.

The poem on the billboard:

"More than fifty years have passed,
that with benches and with tables
the place of the Pech Club Wangelist
maintained and prepared.


On a sunny Sunday every year,
the Riepen green, the weather gorgeous,
the Pech Club and half a Wangelist,
whether pensioner, infant, pagan, Christian,
only prepare for one
Today we go to the "Hut Huts Tour".


Early morning with music and swing
begins the Riepenwanderung.
Passing by the Riepenteichen
To reach "Hut - Huts - Ruh" then.


And now the question arises:
Who or what likes to be "Hat - Hat"?


To clarify this question,
here the club wants to honor a member;
"Wilhelm Huchthausen", over 50 years
was on the board of our bad luck club.


His name was "hat hat",
as Dampflockführer some tour
from Hamelin he drove to Lage.
Gabe his steamlock loud signal,
"Huut - Huut" resounds in the Hummetal.


Such is what "hat hat" once did
framed and coded here,
he lives in this beautiful place
in honorable memory.


Fred Eichenauer "

Janssen Park

Highlight • Historical Site

In 1907, the manufacturer Heinrich Janssen began to build a park in the Klüt district of Hamelin.

His son Dr. Heinrich Janssen had a small tea pavilion built there in 1928. There are two small additions to the pavilion. The dome is said to have initially consisted of copper, which had to give way to a cladding made of "papier-mâché" after the war. Inside there is said to have been a marble fireplace, furniture and putti. Electricity and a drinking water connection were not available. In front of the tea house is a terrace with a large lawn. There was also a stream with two beautiful wooden bridges. The garden, which was then around 120 years old, was laid out in the English style with rare deciduous and coniferous trees from overseas. The paths are said to have been equipped with lanterns during celebrations.

The special trees have disappeared. Today, new trees block the view of the once carefully maintained visual aisles of the old town and the Weser.

After the Second World War the garden became overgrown. The bridges in the garden were dismantled and burned due to a lack of firewood.

The traditional restaurant in the Klütwald was sold by some Zeig. It is currently being renovated/modernised.

It looked pretty closed. But you could definitely make something great out of it!

Janssen Park is an abandoned property over 100 years old at the end of the Klütviertel. It looks a bit enchanted and also impressive when suddenly there is a large gate in the forest!
