Holm

Geographically, Holm lies on the edge of the Elbe River Landscape Nature Park and thus offers a unique landscape with numerous lakes and rivers. The region is known for its idyllic cycle paths along the Elbe as well as the possibility of fishing or boating.

Sights relevant to tourism include Agathenburg Castle from the 17th century and St. Marien Church, which has an impressive bell tower. Another highlight is the Museum Altes Land, which deals with the history of the region.

Cultural highlights can also be found in Holm: the annual apple festival in September celebrates the harvest time of the famous Altländer apple and attracts thousands of visitors every year. Concerts on the grounds of Agathenburg Castle or theatre performances in the Hollern-Twielenfleth culture barn are also recommended.

Culinary delights include regional specialities such as Matjesfilets or Labskaus - a traditional dish of potatoes, meat and beetroot.

Outdoor fans will get their money's worth here: In summer you can go swimming at the Deichkroog lake or relax on a canoe trip on the Este. In autumn, a hike through the colourful orchards is particularly worthwhile.

Even in rainy weather, there is plenty to discover in Holm: The Altes Land Museum or the NABU Species Conservation Centre offer exciting insights into the nature and history of the region.

The most beautiful time in Holm is definitely in spring, when the fruit trees are in blossom and a sea of pink and white flowers adorns the village. But this idyllic place also has its own special charm in summer and autumn.
