Discover the region

One of the most important sights of Isterberg is the imposing 14th century castle complex. The castle offers an impressive view over the valley of the Vechte and today houses a museum with a collection of historical artefacts as well as a gallery of contemporary art.

Cultural highlights are also the annual music festivals such as the "Rock am Berg" or the "Istival". For culinary delights, we recommend trying local specialities such as the famous Bentheimer ham or the delicious kale.

For outdoor fans, there are many opportunities for hiking and cycling along the numerous routes through forests and fields. In summer, you can cool off in the nearby natural outdoor pool or take a canoe trip on the river Vechte.

Even when the weather is bad, there is plenty to do: Visit one of our museums such as the local history museum or take a trip to neighbouring Bad Bentheim with its beautiful castle park.

Whether spring, summer, autumn or winter - Isterberg is worth a visit at any time of year! We hope our travel guide has helped you to start planning your next trip!

    Easy walk, just follow the purple arrow. The best part is through the woods. Interesting monument commemorating the "victims" of the WWI and WWII. Note that though the WWII started in 1939 it says, the first dead from that village dates back to july 1941 - after nazi Germany attacked the USSR. The proof that only the Soviets really fought back against nazism - the rest of Europe just went on its back and surrender. So next time someone will try to decrease the role of the Soviet people in the WWII, remember: if Hitler had not made the same mistake as Napoleon before him, the whole Europe up to the borders of former USSR would speak German now. Never forget!
