Built around a port on the River Ems, Haren grew into an important inland-shipping town in western Lower Saxony. The river remains central to its identity, while the Haren–Rütenbrock Canal links the town’s waterways towards the Dutch border. Haren’s long connection with seafaring and shipbuilding is documented at the Maritime Museum, and St Martin’s Church, often called the Emsland Cathedral, is a prominent local landmark.
