history

The Mittelland Canal reached Bad Essen around 1914 and the first land, mainly for the handling of building materials, agricultural products and coal, was built at the old crane . However, the canal was initially only navigable to the west. A noticeable increase in handling volumes was achieved from 1916 onwards, when the Mittelland Canal to Hanover in the east and the Osnabrück canal to the south were pierced and could be increased in the following years despite the First World War and the global economic crisis . In the interwar period and during the Second World War , the port was mainly used for forestry and agriculture and for domestic needs, such as coal and building materials, until the 1950s.

In the 1960s, in the course of upgrading and expanding the canal, new transshipment points were opened to the west, outside the town center, and from 1963 on, leisure shipping gradually displaced commercial goods transshipment from the town center. Since the incorporation of Wehrendorf in 1972, trimodal cargo handling ship / rail / road has been possible in Bad Essen , as a pull-out track leads directly to the quay in the Wehrendorf harbor .
In 2015 a second sports boat harbor was opened close to the city center and the new town center is being planned.

traffic

Local roads connect the ports to federal highway 65 . In public transport , all parts of the port are supplied within a reasonable distance.
The Wehrendorf area is connected to the Deutsche Bahn rail network by a pull-out track from the Wittlager Kreisbahn .
