Issum

Issum has served as a parish centre in the Lower Rhine since the Middle Ages. The municipality lies on the Niers, a lowland river that winds north-west through the Kleve district towards the Netherlands, and its setting is defined by fields, farms and scattered woodland rather than urban density. Issum’s past is tied to the Herrlichkeit Issum, a small territorial lordship that shaped local administration for centuries. St Nicholas Church anchors the historic centre, while the town is known nationally as the home of Diebels brewery, founded here in 1878.
