Diepholz, District capital in Lower Saxony, Germany

The municipality of Diepholz sits at the intersection of the Hunte and Lohne rivers, stretching across agricultural lands and forested areas in northern Germany.

The territory functioned as a sovereign Noble Lordship from the 12th century until 1585, when the extinction of the ruling lineage led to Brunswick-Lüneburg annexation.

The district maintains multiple restored windmills, historical structures, and regional museums that showcase the agricultural heritage and technical developments of Lower Saxony.

Located 45 kilometers northeast of Osnabrück and 60 kilometers southwest of Bremen, Diepholz connects to major transportation routes across northern Germany.

The Dümmer Lake nature reserve within the district provides nesting grounds for numerous bird species and contains extensive wetland ecosystems.
