Ootmarsum is always a nice destination on a bike tour and it's worth parking your bike for a while before continuing on the great paths in the area surrounding Ootmarsum -:) Always very busy in the season and on event days (!)

In February 2010, the starting gun was fired for the “Klooster Ootmarsum conversion” project. The renovation of the monastery garden was the first phase of this project. The sculpture "Nun with Children" was moved from the Kloosterstraat to the Kloostertuin.
