Nearby geographical features include a group of three lakes called Torfkuhlen Bad Sülze.
Excavations on the Redderstorfer corridor have shown that a settlement in the area of the present town existed from the Neolithic to Bronze Age and, later, from the Slavic times to the Middle Ages. Bad Sülze is known for its spas and may be the oldest brine and moorbath[2] in northern Germany.[3]
