Rheda-Wiedenbrueck: Dual Town, Toennies Meat Processing, and the Ems Headwaters
Rheda-Wiedenbrueck has a population around 46,100 and lies in the Guetersloh district of Nordrhein-Westfalen, where the Ems river begins its course towards the North Sea. The municipality was formed in 1970 by merging the formerly independent towns of Rheda and Wiedenbrueck, each retaining its own historic centre. Schloss Rheda, a moated castle with a Romanesque chapel, is among Westphalia's oldest secular buildings.
The Toennies Group, one of Europe's largest meat processing companies, is headquartered here and dominates the local economy. Wiedenbrueck's Altstadt has well-preserved half-timbered houses and the Marienkirche. The Flora Westfalica, a garden and landscape park, connects the two town centres. The Ems-Erlebniswelt documents the river's ecology at its source. Guetersloh is 12 kilometres north, Bielefeld about 30 kilometres northeast. Adult companionship follows NRW's regulatory framework.
