Tips from the Community
The Baroque town hall, built in 1752 with its bright yellow paint, is an architectural gem in Hilter. The Baroque architect Johann Conrad Schlaun, who was working on the monastery in Bad Iburg at the same time, likely contributed to its construction.

Since the church is located at an intersection, it is a bit noisy, but the building itself is very beautiful inside and you can't hear any street noise inside.

The Haseuferweg (Has Riverside Path) is very nice for leisurely cycling, especially in the Schinkel area, but less suitable for a quick connection. It's too narrow in several places.

In 2015/2016, the Oesede Monastery Local History Society rebuilt the historically significant Stone Tower at the roundabout at the entrance to Oesede Monastery. Its history dates back to the late Middle Ages. In 1441, Count Johann von Hoya (the "Wild Jan") robbed the Osnabrück citizens of their cattle in the Fledder during a feud. The citizens rushed after him, but broke off their pursuit at nightfall at the Stone Tower. That same year, Johann von Hoya was captured during the storming of Fürstenau Castle by the city of Osnabrück and imprisoned in the Johanniskasten (Steiniger Turm) in Osnabrück's Bucksturm (Bucksturm) for six years until 1447. During another feud between Osnabrück and the robber baron Friedrich von Buck, an unsuccessful meeting took place in 1450 in the Steiniger Turm between representatives of the city of Osnabrück and the Osnabrück cathedral dean Albert von Bevessen († 1458), whose epitaph has been preserved in the ambulatory of the Osnabrück cathedral.
