Where to stay in Haspe
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Water, then houses. Haspe is a working borough of Hagen rather than a visitor address, and a stay here means the Ennepe valley, the walk out to the Haspertalsperre and a run into the city for anything else. The Kaiser-Friedrich-Turm is the other draw.
Take Haspe for the reservoir and the quiet of the Ennepe; take the middle of Hagen when the trip wants choice, and treat Haspe as the afternoon it pays to spend outdoors.

About Haspe
What are the main landmarks in Haspe?
A dam, a tower, a hall. The Haspertalsperre holds back the Hasper, the Kaiser-Friedrich-Turm carries an imperial name, and the Rundturnhalle Haspe adds a round gymnasium to a list most boroughs would fill with churches alone. Parish buildings account for the other three.
The Evangelisch-Lutherische Kirche Haspe, St. Bonifatius and the Kapelle Evangelischer Friedhof Haspe cover the parish ground, the last of them standing in the borough's Protestant cemetery.
What is the history of Haspe?
Two streams, one borough. Haspe took its shape along the Ennepe valley at the confluence of the Hasper, and the Haspertalsperre later dammed that stream into the borough's reservoir. An imperial name arrived next.
The Kaiser-Friedrich-Turm keeps that name, the Evangelisch-Lutherische Kirche Haspe and St. Bonifatius divide the parish ground, and Hagen draws the whole borough into its own city in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Where is Haspe?
The Hasper joins the Ennepe at Haspe, and the borough spreads from that confluence across a wide piece of Hagen toward the Haspertalsperre.
