Car Hire Uelzen - Mini guide to Uelzen

The varied landscape makes Ulzen a great place to visit with car hire in Uelzen. It is a town in Lower Saxony which is located in northwestern Germany and surrounded by gentle hills, mountains and plains. It has, however, not always been a place that you would want to visit as up until 1945 a Nazi concentration camp was homed here.

Within the town, one of the city's most popular tourist attractions is the Hundertwasser Railway Station. The original station was opened in 1847, but it lost its original structural style after it was heavily damaged during WWII and had various additions and renovations.

It was renovated for Expo 2000, which was a World's Fair held in Hanover, following plans by an Austrian artist and architect. Today it is an '˜environmentally culturally oriented' station, which welcomes over 450,000 visitors every year.

Not far from the town is the 107km long Ilmenau River, which is the left tributary of the Elbe and can be reached with cheap car hire in Uelzen. Slave descendents from around the Elbe and Laba rivers of northeastern Germany gave the town another name, Wilcaus. This comes from the Polabian language which was spoken until the mid-18th century.

The river and the surroundings of the city make it an enticing place to tour using car rental in Uelzen, as does the LĂĽneburg Heath Nature Park. Within the park is the LĂĽneburg Heath Nature Reserve; this contains a variety of flora and fauna. It also has extensive coniferous forests, marshes, meadows, pastures, and small valleys, fields, open sands and beautiful lakes and streams, which make it well worth a visit.
