The promenade on the Lenne is a real asset to the town of Letmathe. The cafes and ice cream parlors along the promenade are a good place to linger and take a break. Here you have a beautiful view of the Lenne and can watch the hustle and bustle on the promenade very well.

Pater und Nonne Rock Formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Grürmann Cave is a cave on the Oestricher Burgberg in the Oestrich district of Iserlohn. Your entrance is in the formation of Father and Nun.

Today it is about five meters long after it was cut through a tunnel during limestone mining and sealed with a concrete wall.

Johann Carl Fuhlrott was one of the digging archaeologists. Numerous bones of ice age animals were found during excavations.

Legend has it that the spirit of a landmark shifter lives in the cave.

View of the Ruhr from the Friedensbrücke-Kleinemeyer

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Friedensbrücke-Kleinemeyer in Schwerte, named after the pastor and then acting mayor Heinrich Kleinemeyer, is a remarkable structure that not only represents an important transport connection, but also has a deeper historical significance. Heinrich Kleinemeyer, born on June 10, 1898 in Spradow and died on June 21, 1948 in Schwerte, was a pastor in the city from 1929. His naming of the bridge underlines its importance for the community of Schwerte.

For cyclists and hikers, the area around the Friedensbrücke-Kleinemeyer offers wonderful views over the Ruhr and represents an important route for leisure activities in nature. The bridge is part of various cycling and hiking trails that make the beauty of the Ruhr Valley and its surroundings accessible .

The Peace Bridge was built between 1945 and 1946 and serves as a road bridge. It replaced an earlier bridge from 1892 and is constructed as a steel-reinforced concrete composite bridge. The bridge was opened to traffic in June 1946 after construction work was significantly hampered by a flood from the Ruhr in August 1945. The construction costs amounted to 420,000 Reichsmarks.
