Statue of the Flethenkieker, Buxtehude

Highlight • Monument

FLETHENKIEKER
The Flethenkieker, a sculpture created by the artist Carsten Eggers, had the task of monitoring the Düpen (water depths) in the Elbe and in the canals in Hamburg since 1548. This resulted in the nickname "Flethenkieker".

Breite Straße, Buxtehude

Highlight • Settlement

Buxtehuder Breite Straße is a major street in the center of Buxtehude, distinguished by its width and central location. It plays an important role in the city's public life and is a popular meeting place.

View of the Fleth Mill, Buxtehude

Highlight • Historical Site

A grain mill on the Fleth River in downtown Buxtehude has been documented since 1289. It has been repeatedly rebuilt and expanded. The current Fleth Mill dates back to a three-story new building from 1860-61, which was supplemented by a four-story extension in 1869-70. An additional storey was added in 1936. After the mill was closed in 1975, the mill complex was converted into a residential and commercial building, including a hotel.

The ewer Margareta in Buxtehude

Highlight • Monument

The ship and crew experienced eventful times, both good and bad. The vessel was repeatedly rebuilt to accommodate its various uses. In 1973, the barge was removed from the inland waterway register because it was converted into a ferry landing and anchored on the Elbe island of Lühesand.

Through the initiative of master carpenter Ewald Martens, the "Altstadt Buxtehude e.V." (Buxtehude Old Town Association) acquired the barge "Margareta." On May 25, 1987, towed by the barge "Plummslucker," the barge "Margareta" returned to its home port of Buxtehude after a 37-year absence.

September 3, 2023,19. Buxtehuder Altstadtlauf 🏃‍♂️🏅

Today it was the 19th Buxtehude Old Town Run!

While I attended a concert in Hamburg's Barclays Card Arena last night while enjoying my beer, today I had to prove myself on the running track. Of course, the focus should be on having fun, just like the numerous children did. But I couldn't do it without ambition 🤨
