Where to stay in Voslapp
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Nobody books a trip around Voslapp. Wilhelmshaven puts its beds by the harbour and the centre, which leaves this borough as a quiet address for anyone travelling by car rather than a base for sightseeing. Neuengroden and Altengroden are the same case. You would come out here for the Sts. Maria-und-Mauritius-Kirche or St. Martin, then head back toward Mölders and the Deutsches Marinemuseum.

About Voslapp
What are the main landmarks in Voslapp?
Voslapp records two churches. The Sts. Maria-und-Mauritius-Kirche carries a double dedication, and St. Martin is the second entry, which is the whole of the list the borough holds.
Wilhelmshaven supplies the rest, from the Deutsches Marinemuseum and Mölders on the harbour to Nautimo, the Küstenmuseum Wilhelmshaven and the Kunsthalle Wilhelmshaven nearer the centre. Two churches, then, and a city beyond.
What is the history of Voslapp?
The record gives Voslapp no founding date. What can be said is that the borough belongs to Wilhelmshaven, a city founded in 1869 on the Jade Bight and long tied to the North Sea and its harbours. Two dedications survive from that stretch, one to Maria and Mauritius, the other to Martin.
East Frisia holds the whole city.
Where is Voslapp?
Voslapp covers under two square kilometres of Wilhelmshaven, which stands on the Jade Bight where it opens to the North Sea. Neuengroden lies in the same city.
