The beautiful arched wooden bridge is a real feast for the eyes. From here you can watch the canoeists on the Ems, which has a small rapids here. Immediately behind it is a rest area with a viewing platform.

When Christmas is not far off, the nativity scene is set up in front of the Westphalian Museum for Religious Culture, to the right of the pilgrimage chapel. Telgte is always worthwhile, not just at Christmas time.
