A strong and successful economy
The backbone of a strong and successful economy has been established through industry, trade, commerce and agriculture. A wonderful infrastructure with an excellent transport system as well as a wealth of educational and training facilities have made the region an attractive commercial centre.
Discover the past
Key historic events have left their mark on the Osnabrück region, particularly the legendary Varus battle. In the small village of Bramsche-Kalkriese, the museum and park commemorate the defeat of the Roman military general by the Germanic Prince Arminius in 9 A.D. Historic buildings and many castles invite visitors to discover the past - around 3,000 buildings are national heritage protection sites. Serene wind and water mills and picturebook scenery are just as inviting as the idyllic nature.
