Lair

　　Lair is a town in the northwest of Lower Saxony, Germany, located on the banks of the Ems River, near the border with the Netherlands. Human settlement here dates back to ancient times, as evidenced by numerous traces, including flint tools that date as far back as 3200 BC.

　　Lair is a traditional Protestant town, home to several Lutheran and Reformed churches, as well as numerous small religious communities. Harderwykenburg is one of the oldest castles in East Frisia, a medieval stone house. Haneburg is one of the few Renaissance castles in northwestern Germany, built in the mid-15th century, and serves as a historical witness and one of the strongest representations of the era. Evenburg is a widely renowned water castle, constructed between 1642 and 1650, and is among the earliest examples of classic Dutch-style architecture. It was restored in 2006, with its neo-Gothic roof refurbished, and reopened to the public in 2007.
