In the far east of Lower Saxony, the Wendland holiday region lies directly on the border with Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Saxony-Anhalt and Brandenburg. The holiday region on the Elbe attracts visitors above all with its beautiful nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The name Wendland can be traced back to the settlement by the Slavic people of the Wends. This is still evident today in many place names such as Kriwitz, Redemoi\u00dfel or Dickfeitzen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Characteristic of the Wendland are the Rundlingsd\u00f6rfer (round villages), which are scattered across the landscape. The villages are characterised by houses whose gables face a circular village square. Behind the houses, fields and meadows open up in a wedge shape. Originally, only one road led in and out of Rundling villages. Of the approximately 200 Rundling villages in the region, about one hundred have been preserved in their characteristic form and often with historic buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wendland holiday region offers a break away from mass tourism and overcrowded cities. The largest town in the region, the district town of L\u00fcchow (Wendland), is home to only about 9300 people; other towns often have only a few hundred inhabitants. The Wendland impresses with its beautiful nature, which can be enjoyed in the Elbh\u00f6hen-Wendland Nature Park and Lower Saxony Elbtalaue Biosphere Reserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
