Heimatverein Freren

What We Do

We preserve the history of Freren and its surrounding area. For example, through the intervention of our association, we prevented the drainage of the old Aa river arm near Gut Hange, secured the protection of the Buschwalls as a landscape conservation area, and ensured the preservation and renovation of the old rectory.

We also organise a variety of leisure activities, such as hikes, bike tours, and exhibitions. Non-members are warmly welcome to join in our events. Upon request, we'd be happy to show you our local heritage house 'Heimathaus', which includes a library and a crafts museum. The heritage house can also be used for weddings; for this, please contact the Freren registry office.
