The varied landscape, interesting sights and a diverse cultural program invite you to stop in the "city with a view". The Chainsmith Museum on the RuhrtalRadweg shows how the huge steel "binding means" were once made by hand.

Charmingly situated between the Ruhr, fields and the wooded hills of the Haarstrang, Fröndenberg is about halfway along the RuhrtalRadweg. Here you can not only cycle well, but find numerous opportunities to enjoy the beauty of nature and wide views - from hiking to horseback riding to golfing. Particularly valuable in terms of cultural history are the more than 800-year-old Stiftskirche with its important Marian altar and the only chainsmith museum in Germany. Fröndenberg also has a lot to offer culturally: Cabaret, concerts and readings invite you to a stimulating end to the evening. Especially practical: Like the town center with its hotels and restaurants, many of these offerings can be reached by a short distance from the RuhrtalRadweg. And if you want to treat your tired cycling muscles to something really special, you will also find hotel offers with sauna and wellness in Fröndenberg.
P.S. Fröndenberg is also an ideal starting point for day trips to the neighboring Hönnetal, Sauerland, Münsterland and Ruhrgebiet.
