Have you ever ridden from wave to wave? 😄 Waves (Cuxhaven) - waves (Börde) can be done in one day if the conditions are good.
The tour to Wellen (Edertal) is similarly long. But more altitude. ☝️😀

Have fun!😎🚲

Just take the cycle path, it doesn't get much faster on the road either. Fun in both directions 😏

St. Laurentius Church

Highlight • Religious Site

History of St. Lawrence Church

The St. Lawrence's Church was built in the 18th century in Baroque style on the site of a 10th century former church.

Only the Romanesque tower of the previous church has survived to this day. In 1724 the baroque church was consecrated.

In times of occupation by Napoleon's troops and misused and badly damaged, it survived this period and in 1814 was returned to service as a place of worship.

Ottersleber Pond

Highlight • Lake

The pond was first documented in 1563. On the bank was a watermill. It is believed that for their purpose the pond was artificially created. Until 1835, Müller Beeker used the pond as a water reservoir. He then sold his rights for 800 dollars to the factory owners Böckelmann and Köhne. They took the latch water and led this to a well on their factory yard. In the 1930s, a piping of the pawl and the opening here in the pawl coming from the garden Ottersleben source digging took place. Later, the mill was shut down. The factory was also abandoned in the 1930s / 1940s. However, the demolition of the vacant mill building was not until the 1970s. In this decade, there were also plans to transform the Ottersleber pond to the outdoor pool. For this purpose, an enlargement of the pond was intended. With the deforestation of some old pastures even began the construction work, but were then set back.
The pond was later used as a breeding pond for carp and today serves as angling waters. The environment is designed like a park.
At the beginning of the 1990s the nearby housing estate Goethepark was built.
