The glacial erratics from Småland in Nienburg/Weser are impressive relics of a natural history dating back tens of thousands of years. These large, often smoothly polished boulders originally came from the southern Swedish region of Småland and were transported to northern Germany by mighty glaciers during the last Ice Age. As the ice sheet slowly moved south, it tore rocks from the Scandinavian bedrock and carried them over long distances. When the ice melted, these so-called erratics were left behind in the landscape – far from their place of origin. Such glacial erratics, which can be geologically clearly attributed to Sweden, can also be found in Nienburg. Their composition, such as granite or gneiss, as well as characteristic structures, allow conclusions to be drawn about their Småland origin. They thus vividly illustrate the immense forces of the Ice Age and demonstrate how profoundly glaciers shaped the landscape we see today. The glacial erratics are silent witnesses to history, forging a connection between the Nienburg region and Scandinavia. Beyond their geological significance, these erratics also play a cultural and design role. In Nienburg, they are deliberately used as striking elements in the cityscape and green spaces, serving simultaneously as a starting point for environmental education and the preservation of historical memory.

Nice rest area - equipped with two benches, an artificial stone wall behind them and a small stone cone in front of the benches.

Luccaburg Castle was an early medieval lowland castle near Loccum. The tower hill castle of the Counts of Lucca, dating from the 11th/12th century, is recognizable as a massive, round earthen mound. Parts of the 2 m wide circular wall are preserved. A Count Burchard of Lucca is mentioned in documents around 1113 and 1130. His daughter, Beatrice of Lucca, married Count Wilbrand of Hallermund, who thus became his successor and heir. In 1163, he donated the surrounding land to Cistercian monks for the establishment of Loccum Abbey. Luccaburg Castle can only be reached on foot or by bike.
