Our host community, Rheda-Wiedenbrück, used to be separate towns. The school is in Rheda so we have had lots of opportunities to explore that part of town. Today we took a tour of Wiedenbrück. The first written mention of Wiedenbrück was in the year 1088. And, the students even saw a church that may have been built as early as 785! A lot of the buildings date back to the 1500s. It is so cool to be in a place with so much history. In 1970, the towns Rheda, Wiedenbrück, Batenhorst, Lintel, Nordrheda-Ems and St.Vit were combined to form Rheda-Wiedenbrück. The students enjoyed walking through Wiedenbrück--check out the slideshow below!
