Diepholz, Administrative division in Lower Saxony, Germany
The district of Diepholz extends across 1,987 square kilometers of land between Bremen and North Rhine-Westphalia, containing fifteen major municipalities including Stuhr and Sulingen.
The district emerged from a significant administrative reorganization in 1977 when the former district of Grafschaft Diepholz merged with sections of the former district of Grafschaft Hoya.
The district maintains regional administration centers in multiple towns, with the city of Diepholz serving as the capital while Stuhr represents the most populated municipality.
Transportation connections through the district link major urban centers, with Bremen located to the north, Osnabrück to the southwest, and multiple regional roads connecting smaller towns.
The Dümmer lake in the southern part of the district spans 16 square kilometers, functioning as a central water feature with surrounding wetlands for bird populations.
