Schölerberg

The following districts surround Schölerberg in a clockwise direction (starting from 12 o’clock): Innenstadt, Fledder, Voxtrup, Nahne, Kalkhügel and Wüste.

In the early 1950s the restaurants aimed at day trippers and summer toboggan run made for attractive destinations for excursions.

Founded in 1980 by Jürgen Füchtmeyer, it continues to produce judoka of national and international acclaim – among them Julia Matijass, bronze medal winner at the 2004 Olympics, Oliver Gussenberg – participant in the 2000 and 2004 games – and most recently Martin Matijass, bronze medal winner at the European Under-17s Championships.

The sports centre on Iburger Straße offers more than just judo, however – the ju-jitsu department is also becoming more popular and, following on from gold and silver wins in German championships, had a runner-up European Champion in Axel Walter in 2013.

The training centre with its 600m² judo hall is a mecca for judoka across the whole Osnabrück region and its pull extends deep into North Rhine-Westphalia.
