Rehburg-Loccum, Administrative division in Lower Saxony, Germany.
Rehburg-Loccum is an administrative division in Lower Saxony comprising five distinct districts: Bad Rehburg, Loccum, Münchehagen, Rehburg, and Winzlar. These communities are spread across the municipal territory and together form a varied region with different character areas.
The present municipality was formed in 1974 through the merger of the former city of Rehburg and surrounding communities. This consolidation created a single administrative body that unified previously separate settlements.
The Evangelical Academy of Loccum serves as a hub for intellectual exchange, hosting conferences on political, social, and ethical topics. Visitors can observe how the institution brings together people from different backgrounds for dialogue and learning.
The municipality has primary schools in Münchehagen and Rehburg, with secondary education available in the Loccum district. Since the five communities are spread across the area, exploring on foot may require longer walks between different sections.
A portion of the Steinhude Lake Nature Reserve extends into the municipality, bringing wetland habitats and birdwatching opportunities closer to the settlements. This proximity to an important ecological area shapes how the landscape looks and what visitors might encounter when exploring.
