Niepkuhlen Ponds

Highlight • Lake

The Niep itself is canalized throughout its course. Like a chain, it connects a series of consecutive ponds. These are former peat extraction sites, they are also known as pits. The Niepkuhlenrinne with former peat pits has a special local, regional and national importance for the connection of floodplain biotopes for natural history and regional reasons

Lauersfort Castle

Highlight • Castle

In the oldest document from 1344, "Sweder von Vrimmersheim" is listed as a fief. In another document from 1351 Sweder confirms that the manor is both a fiefdom of the Klever family and an open house for them.
The next documented owner was Bernt von Sleswig in 1399, since the Lords of Friemersheim had pledged the property to the Counts of Moers and the "Herrlichkeit Friemersheim" now belonged to the County of Moers.
