Stay at the Mollberg farm estate

The Mollberg farm estate has on-site parking, seating areas, a swimming pond, a sauna, Wi-Fi and bicycle storage. The accommodation also offers a regional and organic breakfast, and dogs are welcome. These details relate to different aspects of a stay: parking and bicycle storage, internet access via Wi-Fi, and breakfast and opportunities to relax on the grounds. Seating and lounge areas complement the facilities listed.

When weighing up different accommodation features, you can consider these points separately: if a regional and organic breakfast is important to you, this is explicitly stated; the sauna and swimming pond add further facilities. As accommodation services may change, confirm the facilities directly before your trip. Also check availability before booking.

The depression in the moorland at Mollberg-Wiefelstede

The Mollberger Moorsenke natural monument is located in Mollberg-Wiefelstede, within the wider destination of Wiefelstede; it is thought to be the remains of a pingo. The water-filled depression later developed into a bog. The sediments may preserve clues to the history of the landscape; the deposits date back as far as 15,000 years. This geological interpretation is one possible explanation and may be refined by future studies.

Several stages of development come together in this landscape: the water-filled depression, the later formation of the bog and possible traces in the sediments. The date refers to the age of the deposits, not to a single historical event.

Culture in the wider destination of Wiefelstede

St. John's Church in Wiefelstede was consecrated in 1057 by Archbishop Adalbert of Bremen and is considered the oldest church in the Ammerland. It is a point of reference for the history of the wider destination of Wiefelstede. The local history museum is also located in the center of Wiefelstede. Its exhibitions rotate between cultural history, everyday life and regional artistic work. If you are interested in a particular exhibition, bear in mind that the displays may change.

A permanent exhibition complements the rotating displays: the garden of the local history museum has been turned into an open-air museum about trade and crafts, showcasing technology from the 1920s and 1930s. Visitors can see a shoemaker's workshop, a barber shop, a wheelwright's workshop, an old forge, a bakery and a colonial goods store. These examples represent different crafts and shops; unlike the rotating exhibitions, this display is permanent.

At the Wemkendorf burial mound, a trail marker designed by Barbara Jaros marks a Bronze Age chain of burial mounds. The two-meter-high concrete stele bears an ornamental pin cast in bronze and is part of the “Forgotten Places” project by the Ammerland art trail. The church, museum and trail marker offer different perspectives: the history of a church building, changing and permanent insights into culture and everyday life, and an artistic marker at an archaeological site.
