With a medieval-style Altstadt, Menden offers a variety of interesting sights that are definitely worth a visit. These include, among others, the St. Vincent Church or the Old Town Hall in Art Nouveau style. Both buildings are considered landmarks of the town on the Hönne. With the still recognizable Wallring, its city towers and the partially preserved city wall, there are further impressive insights into the history of Menden.
A shopping trip through the city center is also an experience for the whole family. Surrounded by lovingly restored half-timbered houses in winding alleyways, lively squares and numerous owner-operated specialty stores create a varied atmosphere for young and old. Many town festivals and traditional celebrations such as the Menden Carnival, the Whitsun Fair, spring and autumn markets and last but not least the Menden Summer and Menden à la carte attract more than 500,000 visitors to our town in the course of a year. Menden's nature offers the best conditions for numerous outdoor activities. Due to its location on the RuhrtalRadweg, Menden is the ideal starting point for interesting bike tours through the region.
