Wedding House on the Island, Wienhausen

Highlight • Monument

The Trauhaus in the old center of Wienhausen

The small half-timbered building used today as a Trauhaus, there on its enchanted island between the two arms of the Mühlenkanal in the middle of the old Wienhäuser town center, has a varied history behind it.

The exact date of construction is unknown. It is believed, however, that it should come from the period around 1850 and was initially used as storage. However, it is certain that it was dismantled around the year 1900 from its former location in Wathlingen and implemented in Wienhausen. His inconspicuous-looking building finally got its current, and hopefully now-used, location in 1978. Volksbank Wathlingen played a large part in the realization of the project.

Since May 1, 1997 is located in a romantic setting the mews of the velvet community Flotwedel. Bridesmaids who want to tie the knot for life can do so outside the usual opening hours. So if you have decided to give the yes-word for the covenant of life in the romantic convent community Wienhausen, then the small Trauhaus will surely become the starting point of unforgettable hours and a happy common life.

Blasek Oak (Wienhausen)

Highlight • Monument

The Blasek oak was erected in 1987.
Blasek himself saw himself and his artistic work in the tradition of both Wilhelm Kricheldorf and Wilhelm Krukes. But even more, Blasek was guided in his work by his deep religious feelings.

In front of the new cultural center, which was previously Vienna's old town hall, the so-called Blasek oak tree commemorates the founding of the town by Emperor Heinrich III. in 1052. This bears the inscription "1052 Emperor Heinrich III gives Huginhusen to the Bishop of Hildesheim".

Wienhausen Watermills

Highlight • Monument

Wienhausen is widely known for its magnificent monastery. But those who come to the monastery on the driveway via the Mühlenkanal should also take a look at the two mill buildings there. A mill is already mentioned in Vienna in 1351. Until the Reformation she belonged to the monastery Wienhausen, then she came to the Landesherschaft. However, the current mill building on the right bank of the Mühlenkanal dates from 1591. It is a single-storey half-timbered building with a variety of decorative forms. End of the 18th century On the opposite bank, a new multi-storey mill building was built. The old mill was saved from ruin by a restoration in 1837 and henceforth served as a sawmill, warehouse and living quarters. Since 1906 the Wienhäuser flour mill with turbine drive worked. But also the old mill received a turbine in 1908: A power station was set up in the old building, which served until 1956 the place. Since the end of the 1960s, it serves as a town hall. In 1962, the flour mill ceased operations. In the 1980s, the building was renovated and has since served as a home, studio and workshop, while a turbine generates electricity.

Bell Tower of St Mary's Church, Wienhausen

Highlight • Religious Site

The structural beginnings of the Church of St. Mary are obscure. However, old documents show that the church held an important position in later years after its founding. The free-standing bell tower, which was built some distance away, has been in use since the 15th century.

Wienhausen Monastery Park

Highlight • Forest

Particular attention is paid to the large oak trees, some of which are well over 400 years old. It takes at least four fully grown people to hug her.
At the monastery entrance, the first thing the visitor is greeted with is a huge copper beech tree that is at least 150 years old. It only differs from the common beech in its reddish foliage. The European beech is a deciduous tree. Their shade tolerance is only exceeded by the fir or the yew.

Ancient Oak in Klosterpark

Highlight • Natural Monument

This ancient oak tree is not to be confused with "Natural Monument 41". It is also located in the monastery park, right next to the "Küchengraben".

I am particularly impressed by the deeply furrowed bark of the tree.
