Discover the region

Fresenburg lies on the western bank of the Ems and is surrounded by picturesque meadows and fields. The town is known for its idyllic landscape with numerous lakes, rivers and canals. It is a perfect destination for all nature lovers.

The main tourist attractions are Clemenswerth Castle, an 18th-century baroque complex; Nordhorn Zoo with an abundance of exotic animals; and Marienfeld Abbey - one of the oldest monasteries in Germany.

Culture enthusiasts should not miss the art & culture market at Clemenswerth Castle or also visit the exhibitions at the Museum Industriekultur.

Throughout the year there are various events such as the traditional town festival or also the Christmas market in December - both a must for every visitor!

For gourmets, Fresenburg has some culinary delights to offer: Be sure to try the local speciality "Bentheimer Schweinefleisch" or enjoy fresh bread from the local baker.

If you prefer outdoor activities, Fresenburg offers many opportunities for hiking, cycling or boating during the summer. In winter you can ice skate on frozen lake or ski at the nearby indoor ski slope.

If it rains, there is still plenty to do: Visit the Museum of Industrial Culture or relax at the Nordhorn thermal baths.

The most beautiful area of Fresenburg is undoubtedly the area around Clemenswerth Castle with its beautiful baroque gardens and adjacent woodland. Here you can walk for hours and enjoy nature.

Fresenburg is definitely worth a trip for anyone who enjoys spending time in a quiet town surrounded by beautiful nature. We hope this guide has helped you plan your next adventure!

    Ein wunderschöner und anfängerfreundlicher Weg. Wir sind mit dem Zelt gefahren und haben problemfrei, auch ohne Vorbuchungen, Übernachtungsmöglichkeiten gefunden. In Rheda-Wiedenbrück und Papenburg ist die Beschilderung leider nicht so übersichtlich, da empfehle ich ganz klar eine Karte. Sonst ist der Radweg sehr gut ausgeschildert, die Wege angenehm zu fahren und die Aussicht wunderschön.

    Der EmsRadweg hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir sind ihn von den Quellen bis zur Mündung gefahren und in einer Videoserie gefilmt. Hier ein kleiner Vorgeschmack.

    Bin den Emsradweg vor 3 Jahren gefahren, von der Quelle bis zur Mündung! Was 'jü ass' das schreibt ist grundsätzlich und pauschal schon richtig, aber will man denn (wie für ein Rennrad) frisch geteerte Strassen unter den Reifen haben? Ich bin den Emsradweg gerne gefahren und kann diesen nur weiter empfehlen, auch für Familien!
