The lower reaches of the leash range from Marienburg Castle to its mouth in the Aller. This vast river landscape is dominated by lush green meadows, fields and leashes and rivers in the summer. The riverbank between Marienburg and the capital of Lower Saxony, Hannover, is ideal for hiking, walking and cycling.

Marienburg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Marienburg Castle was built from 1858 for Queen Marie of Hanover and is one of the most impressive structures in the region. Until 2020, it was privately owned, then a transition to the current Marienburg Castle Foundation was pushed forward. Coupled with this was the urgently needed renovation of the castle after 160 years. The castle is being extensively renovated for 27 million euros, which is why it is currently not accessible to the public. If the construction work allows, individual parts will be opened. The renovation measures are expected to last until 2031.

August 19, 2022,Freitags mit Kollegen (KW 33) - Auf zum Schloss Marienburg

Today a piece of Lower Saxony history - Marienburg Castle 🏰, and then a walk along the leash 🏞️. The sun was quite strong, but there was a pleasant wind, so it was bearable. A movie 🎥 was being shot at the castle, but we couldn't figure out what kind. Will probably remain one of the great mysteries of this …
