Buchholzer Windmill
Highlight • Monument
Until 1931, the Buchholzer windmill, which had actually once stood in Bothfeld, was still in operation. Around 1870 she was transferred from there to Buchholz in the Pasteurallee on the Mittelland Canal. Already in 1612 the mill was first mentioned in a document. At that time she was still in Bothfeld "Im Heidkampe" to find. In the Seven Years' War, the mill was burned down by French soldiers and then rebuilt. The Buchholz windmill is a Dutch windmill with a rotatable dormer. Source: myheimat.de/hannover-gross-buchholz/kultur/buchholzer-muehle-d1313941.html

Misburg Branch Canal
Highlight • River
Today's branch canal was initially built from 1914 to 1916 as the Mittelland Canal to the Misburger Hafen and ended with a turning point. After the end of the First World War, a new route was chosen for the further expansion of the Mittelland Canal. Today's branch canal was created from the old route.
The expansion of the branch canal for larger types of ships to the Misburger Hafen (corresponding to the expansion of the Mittelland Canal) was completed in October 2007.

Mittelland Canal in Hannover
Highlight • River
The canal runs through Hanover for more than 20 kilometers.
The Mittelland Canal is the longest man-made waterway in Germany with a length of about 325 km and connects the rivers Rhine and Oder.
Larger thought, it even enables a connection between Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg, France and Switzerland on the one hand ... with Poland and the Czech Republic on the other.
