Werben combines a landscape shaped by woodland, open areas and the village with specific themes for a stay: church routes, horse riding and local history. A row of lime trees on Lindenweg is listed as a natural monument; the more than one-hundred-year-old bread oven is a reminder of former celebrations and bread baking. This brings outdoor activity, regional nature and a piece of local history together in your travel plans. If you are looking for a holiday apartment in Werben, you can start by deciding which of these themes you want to shape your stay.
Lime Trees and Countryside
Werben’s landscape is shaped by a mix of woodland, open areas and the village. A row of lime trees on Lindenweg is a specific natural landmark: it is listed as the only natural monument in the former municipality of Werben in the Teltow-Fläming district’s register of listed monuments. This brings together the varied landscape and a clearly identified local feature.
Choose Church Routes by Distance
The church walking route from Werben to Glienick is 3 kilometres long; the 5-Church Circular Route is 29 kilometres long at its core. This lets you choose according to the distance you want to cover: a shorter connection between two places or a considerably longer circular route. The 5-Church Circular Route of the Christinendorf-Glienick parish association connects the churches in Glienick, Nunsdorf, Märkisch Wilmersdorf, Christinendorf and Schünow; Werben is also part of the parish association. Check the latest route information before setting off, as route conditions may change.
Bread Oven and Horse Boarding Stable
The more than one-hundred-year-old bread oven in Werben connects local history with a specific craft. Several celebrations have been held there in the past, and the oven has turned out fresh, crusty loaves. For travellers interested in local history and bread baking, the oven offers a point of interest in its own right, alongside the churches and countryside. Pferdepension Werben has around 90,000 square metres of pasture. It offers opportunities for rides out into the idyllic Brandenburg countryside surrounding the riding centre, as well as riding lessons for curious beginners and interested more advanced riders. Contact Pferdepension Werben directly before your visit to arrange any rides or riding lessons.
