The sauna club LaVita is located in Wallenhorst-Hollage near Osnabrück.
Osnabrück is located in Lower Saxony, right on the border with North Rhine-Westphalia, at the intersection of several motorways and railway lines, which makes the city an important traffic junction.
Osnabrück has a lot to do with the city of Münster, about 50 km to the south, e.g. the Westfalenbahn railway connection in the so-called zone tariff, which means that travellers with a NRW ticket do not need to buy another ticket when heading for Osnabrück main station, which by the way has the exotic form of a tower and marshalling yard. Osnabrück is just like Münster a bishop's seat and university town; the city shares with Münster the Westphalian past, from which Osnabrück, in contrast to Münster, however, has renounced, and the airport Münster/Osnabrück (FMO).
Above all, however, Osnabrück and Münster are connected by the historically important date of 1648, on which the Peace of Westphalia was concluded in Münster and Osnabrück between 15 May and 24 October 1648, which ended the Thirty Years' War in Germany and at the same time the Eighty Years' War of Independence in the Netherlands. In the Peace Hall of Osnabrück's town hall, which was completed in 1512 in the late Gothic style and is the city's landmark, 42 portraits of the rulers and European envoys from that period still hang today.
In a nutshell, Münster lies in the Münsterland and Osnabrück in the Osnabrücker Land, but the city deserves a more precise geographical description as it is surrounded by the nature and geopark TERRA.vita, which makes it the only major German city located in a nature park. Osnabrück is located in Osnabrück's hill country, which is bordered in the north by the Wiehengebirge mountains, in the south by the Teutoburg Forest, which is noticeable in the cityscape by many elevations. North of the Wiehengebirge, however, begins the North German Plain, the Osnabrück Nordland is characterized there by terminal moraines and extensive moorlands landscapes as well as coastal swamp.
Osnabrück developed as a market around the bishop's seat founded in 780 by Charlemagne. In the Holy Roman Empire, Osnabrück belonged to the high monastery of the same name until 1803. The oldest city constitution, the Sate, dates from 1348. The city joined the Hanseatic League in 1412, Osnabrück was the capital (principal city) of the Westphalian quarter of the Hanseatic League and developed into a prosperous trading town.
The city came to the electorate of Hanover in 1803, but shortly afterwards it was occupied by French troops. In 1806 Osnabrück belonged for a short time to Prussia, in 1807 Napoleon incorporated it into the Kingdom of Westphalia and in 1810 into the Empire of France. After Napoleon Bonaparte's abdication, the city became part of the Kingdom of Hanover, which was created during the Congress of Vienna in October 1814 and became the Prussian province of Hanover after the German War of 1866.
In the age of industrialisation, the smeltery "Georgs-Marien-Bergwerks- und Hüttenverein" (Georgsmarienhütte) settled near Osnabrück in 1856 followed by the "Eisen- und Stahlwerk zu Osnabrück" (later Klöckner Steelworks) in 1868, establishing the town's tradition as a steel location. Today, the city is one of the German focal points of paper production, with the Felix Schoeller Group, Kämmerer, Rasch Hangings, Duni and Fislage paper manufacturers and processors based here and in the surrounding area.
There is a lot to see in Osnabrück's tranquil city centre; apart from the town hall, there is the baroque Osnabrück Castle, which today houses the university, the cathedral of St. Peter's, founded in 785, St. Mary's Church, parts of the medieval city fortifications such as the Bucksturm, the Waterloo Gate at the former Heger Gate built in 1817, the old patrician house Ledenhof, Haus Tenge, the Theater am Domhof or the old tollhouse Akzisehaus as well as the Felix-Nussbaum-Haus in the museum complex of the city of Osnabrück.
Due to its exposed location in the nature park, Osnabrück is, among other things, an excellent starting and finishing point for several long-distance hiking trails, which are managed by the Wiehengebirgsverband Weser-Ems Association, including the routes Handelsweg, Hünenweg, Pickerweg and Wittekindsweg. The natural oases Lake Rubbenbruchsee and Lake Attersee serve as natural bathing waters.
Carl Krone, Erich Maria Remarque, Felix Nussbaum, Hartwig Piepenbrock, Olaf Scholz, Christian Wulff and Robin Schulz were born in Osnabrück.
Wallenhorst:
Wallenhorst is an independent municipality in the district of Osnabrück. It is located about 8 km north of the centre of Osnabrück and was first mentioned as Walonhurst in the Latin legend De miraculis sancti Alexandri around 863 A.D. In the course of the last territorial reform in 1972 Wallenhorst was not incorporated into Osnabrück, but belongs historically, culturally and economically to the Osnabrück area.
