UNESCO World Heritage Site CORVEY The former Benedictine abbey of Corvey is considered to be one of the most important monastic establishments in medieval Germany and has been appointed a UNESCO World Heritage site. After nearly 1000 years of monastic life, today’s visitors are received into a baroque castle complex under ducal ownership. The early medieval westwork, the baroque monastery, as well as the princely library with about 75,000 volumes, fascinate guests from all over the world. A visit to Corvey is a splendid experience with its museum, castle restaurant, the Corvey wine house and the Weser Activity Hotel - Corvey is close to the Weser cycle path, too.

The twin towered church is very nicely proportioned and simply furbished. It is near the centre of this small pretty town which has a number of attractive buildings including the Rathaus. We broke our journey here and had coffee, sandwiches and apspfelkuchen at the Westbomke cafe which from the brisk trade is obviously a popular place for locals to get their lunch - it was good.

Wer die Freizeitanlage noch als Baggerseenlandschaft im Urzustand kennt, kann sich nur wundern, was hiergeschaffen wurde. Reisemobilisten können sich als Zielgruppe besonders gut aufgehoben fühlen. Sandstrand und sauberes Wasser findet man auch anderswo, die schöne Lage im Wesertal mit Blick auf den Brunsberg ist alleine Abschalten pur. Bei schönem Wetter tummeln sich Wochenende Paraglider in der Luft - sehr gut zu beobachten. Das Holi-Fest im August sollte man entweder mitfeiern oder meiden.

Home to the famous tale, the town of Hameln is really magic. We arrived in the evening and walked along the main street to St Nikolai church. It was closed but there were people inside rehearsing carols for Easter. It was all lit up and all around the square you could feel a jocund atmosphere , the beauty and enchantment of the place. Everything is inspired to the legend of the magic piper, there are statues and pictures all around the town and it seems to go back to Middle Ages.

An einem sonnigen Tag begrüßte uns Stadtführer Wilfried Henze vor dem Rathaus der Stadt Höxter. Im sehenswerten Saal des Rathaus erfuhren wir sehr viel über die Handesgeschichte der Stadt Höxter. Wir hatten Glück und konnten die Kirche St. Kiliani (Höxter) besichtigen und erfuhren dort sehr viel Interessantes zur Architektur des Gebäudes. Weiter ging durch die Höxteraner Gassen zum Denkmal des Dichters Hoffmann von Fallersleben, zur Marienkirche und runter zur Weser. Dort wanderten wir weiter zu Schloß Corvey und erfuhren viele interessante Dinge zu und um Höxter. Oftmals blieben vorbeigehende Fußgänger stehen und lauschten dem Vorgetragenen. Kurzum: Es war eine sehr informative, kurzweilige und akustisch sehr gut vorgetragene Stadtführung. Unsere Siebenergruppe war sehr zufrieden.
Resümee: Empfehlenswert.

Had a brilliant time. My girlfriends first time on SUP and with the excellent instruction from Martin found her balance on the board and was able to get around the lake with ease. Next time I come over i will book one of their river tours.
