The former university town offers the usual range of small-town cultural and gastronomic amusement - but in the atmosphere of buildings of the Weser Renaissance. At its gates lies the Doktorsee, which offers recreation and water sport activities.
Worth mentioning is also the mine Besucherbergwerk Kleinenbremen, where you can experience under expert guidance an imposing rock world, the newly opened water park or the Weser river cruise on the FGS Brissago.
