Experience Bad Oeynhausen by hire car
The spa town of Bad Oeynhausen is located in North Rhine-Westphalia and borders on the famous Wiehengebirge. The northernmost German low mountain range is a must for all hikers and walkers.
It impresses not only with its incredibly high mountains, but even more with its beautiful nature, where it is wonderful to relax.
Leisure activities in Bad Oeynhausen
On extensive hikes you can really unwind and find peace and relaxation from the stressful everyday life. For nature lovers, the banks of the Werre River flowing through the city are also absolutely recommended.
Here at the great Weserbogen, the Werre flows into the Weser and offers truly pure nature. With a hire car, you can get around the impressive town of Bad Oeynhausen comfortably and at your own pace.
Furthermore, a hire car allows for leisurely trips to Bielefeld or even Hanover. The town’s landmark is the Jordansprudel, one of the largest thermal brine springs in the world. Thanks to modern technology, the water shoots 50 metres into the air every hour on the hour from a depth of around 700 metres.
From 9am to 8pm, you can marvel at this highlight every hour – just not in the winter months, unfortunately. In the spa park you will find numerous magnificent buildings from past eras, such as the Imperial Palace, the Bath House I and II and the Resurrection Church.
These worth seeing buildings, you should not miss in Bad Oeynhausen in any case.
Sights in Bad Oeynhausen
The Ovelgönne Castle should also be on the list of constructions to visit. The imposing 17th-century structure has been presenting itself in an exceedingly impressive manner for 300 years.
A visit to the landscape park Aqua Magica promises a special change. Especially the water crater is probably the most amazing work of the whole park. This is an underground fountain sculpture that is freely accessible.
