Peheim: The best place in the world celebrates 750 years full of stories!

In the middle of the picturesque landscape of the Oldenburg Münsterland, Peheim protrudes - not only through its idyllic location, but also as a "best place in the world". With around 1,200 inhabitants, Peheim is the second largest village of the municipality of Molbergen and inspires its residents with an active club life that has something to offer for everyone. From table tennis to the activities of the shooting club and the Catholic rural youth, there is always something going on here .

Not only the current liveliness attracts people, but also the rich history of the place, which goes back to the 13th century. The first documentary mention took place in 1275, and since the Neolithic period, as the fascinating devil stones in Bischofsbrück show, Peheim has been populated .

big anniversary in sight

in August 2025 Peheim will celebrate a proud anniversary: ​​750 years since the first documentary mention. The home club team around Clemens Westendorf has already worked hard on the preparations. A festive weekend on August 30 and 31, 2025 is imminent, which coincides with the popular Peheimer fun fair. On this special day, both native Pehheim as well as guests from politics and church are cordially invited .

A highlight of the festival will be a concert of the Pehheimer Musikverein on Saturday evening, followed by a big anniversary ball in the marquee. Sunday begins with an ecumenical service and a morning pint where local clubs present their skills. A parade on Sunday afternoon, planned with around 30 topics for foot groups and motif cars, will round off the anniversary weekend .

a place with a future

The organizers also want to show during the jubilee year that Peheim is a sustainable village. Here you have a primary school, a kindergarten, and living clubs - a mixture that holds the community together. In addition, successful companies testify to the economic stability of the region. Another highlight is the summer night festival, which has been organized by the KLJB since 1975 and attracts over 2,000 visitors every year .

On November 6, 2023, all pehers are invited to present the detailed planning of the anniversary in order to celebrate the upcoming event together and exchange ideas. With joy and anticipation, the Pehheimers go into this festive time and invite everyone to become part of their history .
