Suhlendorf

Suhlendorf is located in an idyllic, quiet and scenic area in the eastern Lüneburger Heide near the beautiful Elbhöhen-Wendland Nature Park. The open and wooded landscape invites you to enjoy wonderful cycling and hiking tours.

Suhlendorf offers a very interesting craft museum. In ten different buildings you can take a closer look and learn a lot about the different crafts. You can visit the shoemaker, the radio technician, the blacksmith, the hairdresser, the watchmaker, the painter, the baker and the miller. The museum started life as a mill museum and has since evolved into a museum of many different crafts.

Near the museum you will find the old mill "Auguste", which is more than 200 years old. This is where grain used to be ground into flour and you should take a closer look at this fine mill. The mill is one of the oldest types of windmills in Europe.

The small, cosy town has various festivities throughout the year. These include the annual Schlachtefest, International Museum Day, German Mill Day, summer concerts, the Mill Festival and Craftsmen's Day. There is something for all the family and the youngest can also enjoy the town's fine playground near the crafts museum.
