All About Steinhude – History, Delights, & Lake Views

Enjoy a day full of variety at Lake Steinhuder Meer!
First, join our tour guides as you explore the historic town center of Steinhude: Stroll through picturesque alleys, discover old fishermen’s cottages, and charming spots that tell the story of life by the lake.
Afterward, enjoy lunch together before boarding a passenger boat to Wilhelmstein Island—located in the middle of Lake Steinhuder Meer and steeped in fascinating history.
On the island, your guide will lead you through the historic fortress, which once served as a military school and refuge. Amid ancient walls and sweeping views from the observatory tower, the story of Count Wilhelm of Schaumburg-Lippe comes to life.
To wrap things up, you’ll head back to Steinhude—either with coffee and cake on board or relaxing in a café on the shore.
An unforgettable day, ideal for clubs, companies, or groups looking to experience history, nature, and enjoyment in a special way.
