Note: This is a very interesting town. Unfortunately I ran out of daylight, but I plan to return in the future to make a more complete video.

About:
Schwalenberg is a small town in the Lippe district of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is located about 20 km east of Detmold and consists of eight communes: Schieder, Brakelsiek, Schwalenberg, Lothe, Ruensiek, Wöbbel, Siekholz and Kreienberg. The town has a population of about 8,400 people.

The town is named after the swallows that nest on the nearby mountains. It has a rich and diverse history that dates back to the Roman times. It was once part of the ancient city of Brundisium and later became a county seat of the House of Lippe. The town has preserved some of its medieval and baroque architecture, such as the Schwalenberg Castle, which was built in the 13th century by count Volkwin III and now serves as a hotel and restaurant.

The town is also known for its artistic and cultural heritage. It was home to a group of painters who formed an artists’ colony in the late 19th century. They decorated their houses with colorful murals depicting scenes from nature and folklore. The artists’ colony attracted many visitors from Germany and abroad who admired their work. Today, you can still see some of their paintings on display in various museums and galleries.

Schwalenberg is a charming and authentic town that offers visitors a taste of rural life in Germany. It is a perfect destination for those who love nature, history, and culture.
