Your real estate agent for Homberg (Ohm) and the Vogelsberg district
Anyone visiting this district in Hesse for the first time will quickly realize what makes it special: open space. Although the Vogelsberg district is one of the largest in Hesse in terms of area, it is relatively sparsely populated—a rural idyll, half-timbered buildings, and expansive green corridors define the landscape. The Volcano Cycle Route, which follows a former railway line, is very popular. In fact, the Vogelsberg district lies on Europe’s largest volcanic field. At the “Vulkaneum” in Schotten, visitors can see firsthand how the region was formed millions of years ago.
Families in particular appreciate the region for its child-friendly recreational activities, the natural surroundings, and the many producers of high-quality local food. The Vogelsberg district offers excellent conditions for a relaxed family life in the countryside—combined with charming towns and villages, each with its own unique character.
The Vogelsberg district is characterized in many places by single-family and two-family homes. The district includes, among others, the areas of the former districts of Alsfeld and Lauterbach, parts of the former district of Büdingen (the town of Schotten), as well as individual municipalities in the vicinity of Fulda and Schwalm-Eder.
