Medebach is best known in North Rhine-Westphalia for its historic place in the Hanseatic trading network. The town sits in the Medebach Bay, an open basin on the eastern side of the Rothaar Mountains in the Sauerland. Meadows, farmland and wooded slopes give the area a distinctly rural character, while routes lead into the surrounding uplands. Medebach’s connection with the medieval Hanse links this small town to the commercial history of northern Europe; the parish church of St Peter and Paul remains a focal point in the centre.
