Old Town, Leer

Highlight • Historical Site

The houses in the old town of Leer have been lovingly restored. A walk through the narrow streets is worthwhile because there is so much to discover: small shops, tea rooms, restaurants and many small details on the houses of the people who live here.

Leer City Harbour

Highlight • Settlement

Leer is considered the most important shopping city of East Frisia. It describes itself as a gate Ostfrieslands and is located at intersections of the modes of transport road, rail and river.

The old town is considered the most "valuable" in the region due to the good condition of its historic houses. Four castles, numerous town houses and churches from several centuries can be found in the city.

Ems Cycle Route between Bingum and Weener

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This bike path leads along the Ems behind the dike. In many places you can take a break and just sit on the dyke and look at ships or the landscape.

Weener lock

Highlight • Structure

Weener, a state-approved resort, is often referred to as the green town of the Rheiderland. Green, lush meadows where cows graze or the long dike with sheep grazing, plus the old trees in Hessepark - there is greenery and flowers on every corner.
The idyllic old town with many houses restored according to historical models characterizes the image of the town. In the middle of it is the old harbor with its "Törfwieven". The historic Organeum, a world-famous organ training center, is also located in the old town. The organists often play small concerts in the large St. George's Church, which has one of the rare Arp Schnitger organs and was built around 1230.

Meyer Werft Papenburg Shipyard

Highlight • Structure

From here you have a good view of the Mayer shipyard in Papenburg. It is one of the largest and most modern shipyards in the world. Cruise ships for international shipping companies are built here. Maybe you can see the hull of a cruiser in the shipyard basin.
