Using the two web links I just sent for Bellheim you can use to find Riessel. Riessel is in Oldenburg (Niedersachsen) and the postal code is 49393. Riessel is an area of the town of Lohne now. In distance it is 217.6 miles W of Berlin. There is also a town of Riesel which is 188.1 miles WSW of Berlin or a little NW of Kassel.
