Culture and History
The Försterberg Tower dates from the second half of the 13th century. It served as a watchtower for the vulnerable northeastern section of Stadtoldendorf’s fortifications. Around 800 metres of the original historic town wall have been preserved in the old town; it was interrupted by the Hagentor, Burgtor and Teichtor gates.
The Church of St. Dionys, Kilian and Sebastian was consecrated in 1800 and extended by a choir in 1869. As St. Dionys Church, it is located on the Loccum–Volkenroda Pilgrimage Route and offers a place to pause and refresh.
