THE CITY OF VECHTA

THE CITY OF VECHTA

According to legend, the donkey of the Bremen Town Musicians decided to form a band together with the dog, cat and rooster when he was in Vechta. The journey would not have been far because the district and university town of Vechta is only a stone’s throw away from Bremen, as well as Oldenburg and Osnabrück. The good connections to these cities make for metropolitan flair. The city of Vechta has around 32,000 inhabitants and continues to grow. As an economically strong region, the Oldenburg Münsterland, where the city of Vechta is located, attracts many families and young people. With a low unemployment rate and a high birth rate, Vechta is a young and dynamic city, ideal for living, studying and working.
