In Gütersloh there are also some interesting places to discover: The Miele Museum, for example, shows you everything about household appliance manufacturing, or the theatre also offers a varied programme of cultural highlights.

When it comes to events, you definitely can't miss the Gerry Weber Open - one of Germany's most important tennis tournaments takes place every year in June!
