Hiking

The importance of glass in the region around Bad Driburg is comparable to that of coal and steel in the Ruhr area. The glassmaking tradition here goes back several centuries and has its origins in the forest glassworks. For a long time, the forest offered a main raw material for glass production: wood. When the tree population in the vicinity of the glassworks was exhausted, the glassmakers moved on.

‘So that the old glassmaker and glass dealer traditions are not forgotten, former glassmakers founded a regulars’ table at the end of the 90s and later the “Förderverein Glasstadt Bad Driburg”. the association donated the glassmaker monument in the upper Langen Straße in 2006 to commemorate the glassmakers who worked in Bad Driburg for centuries...'
