Sundern

Sundern combines the wooded quiet of the Sauerland with a long manufacturing presence in a way that reflects its position between the Röhr valley and the region’s uplands. The town lies in North Rhine-Westphalia’s Hochsauerlandkreis, amid forested ridges and dispersed settlements. The Sorpesee reservoir, within Sundern’s municipal area, is a local centre for sailing, cycling and walks along the water. Sundern is also known as the Lichtstadt, reflecting its established lighting industry; the German lighting company TRILUX has its headquarters here. Parish churches and timber-framed houses in surrounding districts add to its distinctly Sauerland character.
