Osnabrück Circular Tour

A northern German metropolis - surrounded by two low mountain ranges. A city with 158,000 inhabitants - in the middle of the nature and geopark TERRA.vita. A charming city experience emerges from contrasts like these, which can be wonderfully enjoyed on a compact cycling tour on the Osnabrück Round Tour. Along the way, you will encounter the rivers Hase, Nette, and Düte, where the flowing transition between city and nature park can be experienced on their banks. Since time immemorial, one of the city's economic centers has been located at the Zweigkanal, which connects Osnabrück to the Mittelland Canal. In the "Museum of Industrial Culture," historical machines recall bygone times and add a touch of nostalgia to the smell of hard work.

But there is more: noble seats and old mills, zoo and Rubbenbruchsee, strawberry fields and forests, even megalithic tombs can be found in Osnabrück and its immediate surroundings. In short, the "Osnabrück Round Tour" provides a taste of what is yet to come. An diverse region, its people, and its attractions. But before you set off, take a leisurely stroll through the historic old town with its medieval stonework and the proud citizens' houses with their Gothic stepped gables.

On the steps of the more than 500-year-old town hall, the Peace of Westphalia was proclaimed in 1648. A past that obliges - to this day: Erich Maria Remarque, the most influential pacifist writer of the 20th century, is a son of the city. The Peace Center named after him commemorates the life and work of the internationally renowned author and explores the great theme of "War and Peace" in all its facets through changing special exhibitions. Osnabrück offers top gastronomy and traditional cuisine in close proximity. Hearty dishes can be found at the Rampendahl brewery, sweets at the main branch of Confiserie Leysieffer, or in front of a historical backdrop in the market square. Rest assured, your culinary experiences will also stay with you in memory!
