The Thermal Spa, the only one in the Lüneburg heath, is the ideal holiday destination for health conscious people and for nature lovers.

The Old town

Crossing the Ilmenau River from the Spa Gardens leads us to the Old Town where there some old and noteworthy Bevensen houses survived the 19th century fire.

Spa Gardens

Directly on the Ilmenau River, the Spa Gardens surround the Spa Center. The extensive green belt with its old trees connects the Old town with the Spa quarter.

Surrounded by forests, fields and heath

Bad Bevensen lies in a gentle-hilly landscape of the northern German lowland. Three elevations surrounding Bad Bevensen are covered with forest that provide invigorating clean air.

The Heath of Klein Bünstorf

On the southern outskirts of Bad Bevensen between the Ilmenau and the Elbe Lateral Canal lies one of the most beautiful Heaths of the region: The Heath of Klein Bünstorf.

Medingen Cloister

There has been a cloister in Medingen, which was then still called Zellensen, since 1336. After the Reformation it was converted in the year 1559 under the reign of Duke Ernest ("The Confessor") of Brunswick and Lüneburg to a women's convent.

The Three Kings Church

The Three Kings Church of the protestant community in the Old Town was erected here after the great fire of 1811. The inscription at the base of the golden altar cup indicates that the altar dates back to 1507 and that the church got its name prior to the Reformation.

History of Spa

An important milestone was the year 1975. In that year, the town achieved recognition by the state as an official spa. A year later, the name of the town was changed from Bevensen to Bad Bevensen.
