Cities

Big cities

Lower Saxony has eight large cities, of which four and six are close to each other, in the Metropolitan region Hanover-Braunschweig-Göttingen-Wolfsburg - only Göttingen deviates spatially a little to the south. In the west, Osnabrück is the only major city in the country, in the north it is Oldenburg.

• Hanover - The state capital on the Leine is not quite in the geographical center of the country, but it is the center of Lower Saxony in almost every respect. In addition to the zoo, the Maschsee and annual major events such as the Schützenfest or the Hanover Marathon, a wide range of cultural and shopping opportunities also attracts short-term visitors to the city.

• Braunschweig - The second largest city in Lower Saxony occasionally competes with the state capital, even if the two cities have been linked by the state's first railway line since the time of the Kingdom of Hanover. Braunschweig also has a very wide range of cultural activities and is worth taking an extensive shopping tour. In particular, the castle and cathedral with the lion, the symbol Henry the LionBraunschweig, the city of which is still known today, should not be missed when visiting.

• Goettingen - The southernmost city in Lower Saxony is primarily as University City known. Your over 275 year old university offers the traveler the lively hustle and bustle of a large student body with a distinctive pub scene, a very differentiated cultural offer and the well-preserved half-timbered old town with many small, unusual shops in its side streets and alleys. There are no spectacular tourist highlights in Göttingen, but the city shows itself around its landmark, the Gänseliesel, as City that creates knowledge often more from a demanding side - from the Handel Festival to a wide range of scientific lectures for everyone and numerous small scientific museums and exhibitions.

• Oldenburg - The former royal seat is about 90 km south of the North Sea coast and is the only major city in Northwest Lower Saxony, both the economic, cultural and, with the Carl von Ossietzky University, the scientific center of the region.

The St. Peter's Cathedral with its two west towers is also impressive, as is the early Gothic St. John's Church. The medieval old town, which was more than 90% destroyed in the war, offers good opportunities for shopping, while in the formerly medieval new town much of the old building fabric has been preserved and thus gives an impression of the old Osnabrück.

• Wolfsburg - The youngest major city in Lower Saxony is inextricably linked with the history of Volkswagen, which is not only visible to rail travelers when they roll past the huge VW plant on the canal by train when they enter the town. The Volkswagen Group's auto city is one of the city's greatest attractions, but the Phaeno Center for Science and Technology also attracts younger people, families and school classes to the city. Located on the Mittelland Canal and Aller, it also offers travelers a lot of nature, a wide range of cultural sights and offers and good shopping.

• Hildesheim - The rich one Cathedral city has been a bishopric since the early Middle Ages. It is characterized by an old town that is well worth seeing, from medieval to early modern times.

Hildesheim is also known for the historic market square, which is one of the most beautiful in Germany, and the ancient Egyptian exhibition in the Roemer and Pelizaeus Museum.

Islands

The chain of is located off the North Sea coast of Lower Saxony East Frisian Islands, which represent a very popular holiday region both for Lower Saxony itself and for holidaymakers from all regions of the state. In the summer months it is advisable to book accommodation on the relatively small islands. But even in the off-season and even in the winter months, a holiday on the East Frisian Islands can have its charm, which many travelers also use as a spa stay in the stimulating climate of the North Sea air.

Lying from west to east Borkum, Juist, Norderney, Baltrum, Langeoog, Spiekeroog and Wangerooge and act as an island belt to protect the East Frisian coast from the floods of the North Sea.
Further east, just before the city Cuxhaven, the island is still in the Hamburg Wadden Sea National Park Neuwerk as well as the protected bird islands Scharhörn and Nighörn. Politically, however, these islands belong to Hamburg.

Moors

The wide moors in the north German lowlands are characteristic of Lower Saxony. In the rural region south of Bremen you will find a number of touristically developed moor areas. The nature conservation and information center on the Goldenstedter Moor, for example, is worth a visit. In addition to the exhibition, there is a bog tunnel, observation tower, trips with the bog railway and of course a footbridge with information boards through a small section of the huge bog. For information see www.niz-goldenstedt.de. More moor railways and nature experience centers on the subject of moor can be found in the "Moor experience" section on the Side of the Dümmerweserland to find. Even in the north of the Lueneburg Heath you can find a beautiful moor landscape in the Tister peasant moor at Sittensen on the A1. A former peat railway can be used to drive into the moor. The trip with detailed explanations on peat bog removal takes an hour. But there is also a hiking trail into the area. A six-meter-high observation tower in the moor offers the opportunity to observe the bird world. The approximately 500 square km Teufelsmoor north-east of Bremen lies in an Ice Age meltwater valley and is drained centrally by the Hamme. The name Teufelsmoor derives from stupid bog (deaf bog) off. In the center of the moor lie the Geestinsel Weyerberg and the artists' colony that has become known through many landscape painters and is still alive today Worpswede.

mountains

While in the north of the state the "flat land" predominates and the mountainous elevations like the Wilseder Berg in the Lueneburg Heath (162.9 m above sea level) or the Harburg Mountains in the district Harburg (154.9 m above sea level) directly south of the state border Hamburg but there are rather rare elevations in the terrain, so towards the south it becomes more and more hilly and finally even mountainous in Southern Lower Saxonywhere the Harz in the east and the Solling in the west border the country.

resin

The resin is Lower Saxony's highest mountain range and primarily attracts hikers to the extensive hiking routes, including in the Harz National Park. But also campers and mobile home owners are drawn to the many quiet parking spaces at the many dams such as the Oker or Odertalsperre. Mountain bikers will find numerous separate trails and bike parks. For northern German winter sports enthusiasts, the Harz is also the first point of contact for Winter sports. For example, the ski area at the 971 m high is known and loved by alpinists Wurmberg, the highest mountain in the state Braunlage. Cross-country skiers, on the other hand, will find an extensive network of trails in the vast forests of the Hochharz.

Solling

The Solling delimits the southern part of Lower Saxony to the west as a ridge in the Weser Uplands. In terms of area, it is the second largest mountain range in the state after the Harz Mountains. Here you will also find an extensive hiking area through forests and over high moors, trails for mountain bikers and, in winter, a small network of cross-country trails. The highest mountain in the Solling is the Great nakedness (527.8 m above sea level) in the district Northeimwho after the Haferberg (580.4 m above sea level) of the Kaufunger Forest, which extends into Lower Saxony in the extreme south, is also the third highest mountain in Lower Saxony. The Solling and the Vogler ridge to the north are part of the Weser Uplands.

language

The residents of the Hanover region it is said that they Standard German speak in the purest form of the entire Federal Republic. But also in all other urban regions of Lower Saxony you mostly only come across the High German language variant.

Nevertheless, in addition to the official German language, the minority language Sater Frisian and Low German are also permitted for official use in Lower Saxony. Travelers encounter these two languages, among other things, in the place names of the regions concerned, in which the place names are usually used in both common languages, but also increasingly in everyday language use. While a few years ago only the older residents were able to use the different variants of Low German (colloquial too Low German or Plattdüütsch called) languages, attention is increasingly being paid to preserving language and customs.

Sater Frisian you only come across it in the community Saterland in the district Cloppenburg. This last language variant of East Frisian is only spoken by around 1500 people, making the region one of the smallest linguistic islands in Europe.

Lower Saxon As a subgroup of the Low German language, some subspecies are still spoken in several regions of the country:

• Northern Lower Saxony among others in Ostfriesland with the East Frisian Platt, in the Oldenburger Land the Oldenburger Platt, im Emsland the Emsland, and the Heidjer Platt der Lueneburg Heath
• Ostfälisch in the rural regions of the Hildesheimer Börde, the northern Harz foreland and in Southern Lower Saxony
• Westphalian in the room Osnabrück and in the County of Bentheim.

However, as the official language and everyday communication in all regions at least also function in High German, no traveler has to worry that without knowledge of Low German (which may sound very strange to strangers at first), you will not be able to get anywhere.

In addition, people in Lower Saxony speak and understand almost in principle English, this should at least apply to all tourism information. French-Knowledge is not uncommon due to the long-standing practice of language teaching in schools Dutch in the regions near the border to the Netherlands such as in the County of Bentheim mostly understood and often spoken.

The fish are gutted and the head removed. Before roasting, they are salted and then turned in rye flour. The smelt is traditionally eaten with warm bacon and potato salad. During the smelt season, the specialty is in restaurants on the Elbe from the estuary up via Hamburg to around Luneburg offered.

Brunswick Mumme

The Brunswick Mumme was the export hit in the Middle Ages Brunswick. The viscous strong beer had a long shelf life due to its high alcohol and sugar content and was therefore sold all over the world as provisions for seafaring. With its vitamins and high nutritional value, it contributed to the nourishment of seafarers and also protected against scurvy. In the 18th century alcohol was then abandoned and the thick malt extract was created, which today is mainly used to refine food and drinks. The Mumme can be mixed with water, milk, tea and beer, for example, or refine sauces, sausage, cheese, cakes, and there are even cookbooks on the subject. The Mumme is offered in some grocery stores in and around Braunschweig and it is also used in some restaurants.
