About Tholenswehr
What are the main landmarks in Tholenswehr?
Two entries carry the district. St. Walburga stands on the Emden heritage list, and beside it the reformed churches of the city are recorded together as a single protected group rather than one by one. No mill or house follows.
Anything further on a Tholenswehr day belongs to Emden itself, since the district's own list stops at the churches and the wider Lower Saxony register adds nothing under this name.
What is the history of Tholenswehr?
Church names are the substance of the file for Tholenswehr, and beyond them the record offers no charter year, no first mention and no date at which the district name entered use in Emden. Emden carries the paperwork. Whatever can be said about the district's past therefore comes through the city and through the churches on its list, with St. Walburga the one dedication named separately.
Where is Tholenswehr?
Tholenswehr holds one of the district names on Emden's plan in Lower Saxony, alongside Harsweg and Conrebbersweg on the same roll.
