Osnabrücker Rund-Tour

A northern German metropolis - surrounded by two low mountain ranges. A large city with 158,000 inhabitants - in the middle of the TERRA.vita Nature and Geopark. Contrasts such as these create a charming city experience that can be wonderfully enjoyed on a compact cycle tour on the Osnabrück circular tour.
On the way, you will encounter the rivers Hase, Nette and Düte, on whose banks you can experience the flowing transition between the city and the nature park. One of the city's economic centers has always been located on the branch canal that connects Osnabrück with the Mittelland Canal. In the "Museum of Industrial Culture", historical machines remind visitors of times gone by and add a touch of nostalgia to the smell of hard work. 

But there's more: noble residences and old mills, the zoo and Rubbenbruchsee lake, strawberry fields and forests, even megalithic tombs can be found in Osnabrück and its immediate surroundings. In short: the "Osnabrücker Rund-Tour" provides a foretaste of what is yet to come. A varied region, its people and its sights. But before you set off, it's worth taking a long stroll through the historic old town with its medieval stonework and the Gothic stepped gables of proud town houses.

The Peace of Westphalia was proclaimed on the steps of the town hall, which is more than 500 years old, in 1648. A past that remains an obligation to this day: Erich Maria Remarque, the most influential pacifist writer of the 20th century, is a son of the city. The Peace Center named after him commemorates the life and work of the internationally renowned author and explores the major theme of "War and Peace" in all its facets in changing special exhibitions. Osnabrück offers top gastronomy and down-to-earth food in the immediate vicinity. Hearty dishes can be found in the Hausbrauerei Rampendahl brewery, sweets in the Confiserie Leysieffer flagship store or against a historic backdrop on the market square. We promise that your culinary experiences will also be memorable!
