This well-signposted circular route leads through the urban area of the Widukind town of Enger and combines the sights with the history of the small railway. Due to its very short length, this circular route is perfect for the whole family.

The KulTour Enger is a historical and cultural city tour of just 5.5 kilometers in length, which takes you to the most important historical and cultural sites in the heart of the Widukindstadt. The main focus here is on the small town's museums and historically interesting buildings.

The starting and finishing point of the KulTour is Barmeierplatz in the center of Enger. The Widukind Museum and the collegiate church from the 14th century with Widukind's tomb slab and a precious carved altar are located in the immediate vicinity. Via Nordhofstraße, the route then leads out of the town center to Nordhof, one of five remaining Sattelmeier farms in Enger. There are various explanations for the origin of the term "Sattelmeier". Possibly it stems from the fact that the owners of the farms had to provide a saddled horse in the event of war. The Sattelmeier farms are probably the oldest farms in the region and are now among the largest farms in the Ravensberg region. From here, the route runs along the edge of the village for a while before turning off again towards the town center. Here you reach the small railroad and tannery museums in quick succession, which invite you on a journey back to the heyday of  in Bielefeld and the district of Herford and the history of leather production in Enger. The route then describes a southern loop through Enger. After a short detour along the Windmühlenweg, you can reach the Liesberg windmill, Enger's landmark.At the southernmost point of the circular route is the Elsternbusch monument from 1913, which commemorates the end of the French occupation in 1813. From here, the route leads along Kesselstraße and Mühlenstraße in a fairly straight line back towards the city center. Shortly before the starting point at Barmeierplatz is reached again, the Maiwiese on the Bolldammbach invites you to take a break. despite the route leading through the center of Enger, almost exclusively asphalted side roads with very little traffic are used. The tour is very flat, making it suitable for families with children.Further information on the route and the waypoints can be found on the  or the cycle leisure homepage of the district of Herford: . There you can also download **maps** and an **information brochure** free of charge.
