Maps and trails
Greven has much to offer visitors of all ages. The historic old town with its cobbled streets invites you to stroll around, while Steinfurt Castle is an impressive sight. Culture lovers should definitely visit the museum of the town of Greven, which is located on the grounds of a former monastery.

In addition to these tourist highlights, Greven also offers culinary delights such as regional specialities and restaurants with international cuisine. Why not try the famous Greven pumpernickel or enjoy a cosy evening in a traditional brewery.

For outdoor enthusiasts, Greven offers many opportunities for leisure activities: hiking along the Ems meadows or cycling through the hilly landscape are just some of them. In the summer months, water sports such as canoeing or stand-up paddling can be practised on the Dortmund-Ems Canal.

Even when the weather is bad, you don't have to stay idle - the AquaFun indoor swimming pool provides fun and relaxation for the whole family. For cultural events, it is worth taking a look at the programme of the GBSH cultural centre and the calendar of events at the Stadthalle Greven, which regularly offers concerts, theatre performances and other events.

It is particularly beautiful in Greven in spring, when the landscape is covered with blossoming cherry and apple trees. In summer, the Ems beach and the open-air swimming pool invite you to sunbathe. Autumn, with its colourful leaves, provides a picturesque backdrop for hikes or bicycle tours through the surrounding area. In winter, visitors can visit the romantic Christmas market or do their laps on the ice skating rink.

Greven is definitely worth a visit - as a travel guide, we recommend that you plan enough time to experience all these sights and activities!
