Neuenkirchen community - people like to live here
The community of Neuenkirchen with its ten villages has a lot to offer: A good infrastructure, a beautiful and varied landscape, a variety of childcare options and a primaryand secondary school with a dedicated team of teachers.

Added to this is the favorable location in the triangle between Hamburg, Hanover and Bremen. If you like, you can get to the big cities quickly.

Many volunteers and committed fellow citizens ensure a lively club life. It does not get boring in Neuenkirchen. Signposted cycle paths offer a wide network through fields, forest, moor and heath. Nordic walking routes have been added in the meantime. Trails and paths await horseback riding enthusiasts. Large areas of the community belong to the Lüneburg Heath Nature Park . The diversity of the landscape "im Sticht" is reflected in the colored lettering Das Neuenkirchen.

Neuenkirchen also bears the addition "Schnuckendorf", because it is home to one of the largest herds of heidschnucken in the Lüneburg Heath.
But Neuenkirchen could just as well be called "art village", because the Kunstverein & Stiftung Springhornhof with its manifold exhibitions, symposia and especially the project Kunst-Landschaft (art landscape ), known since 1967 and continued until today, characterizes the core village Neuenkirchen and the other villages.

With the diversity on offer, it's clear that guests love coming to Neuenkirchen. They enjoy the peace and quiet on hikes and bike tours, visit the local festivals, but also make excursions to the amusement parks in the immediate vicinity.

Scenically, the core village of Neuenkirchen has a lot to offer. The Hahnenbach with its wetlands offers idyllic nature. Extensive forest areas frame Neuenkirchen; moor and heath round off the landscape.
