    It's a shame that it is used exclusively for rail traffic. A single track was sufficient until 1972, and since then double track, because holidaymakers cannot do without their SUVs. A bicycle expressway, on the other hand, would be fine! ;-)

      The Hindenburgdamm connects the island of Sylt with the mainland. The dam was opened in 1927 after a construction period of four years and is used exclusively for long-distance passenger and freight traffic. The dam is 11.3 km long.

        The Hindenburg Dam is the railway dam that connects the North Frisian island of Sylt to the mainland of the Cimbrian Peninsula. The dam was opened on June 1, 1927, after four years of construction and serves exclusively for railway traffic.

        It is part of the Marsch Railway from Elmshorn to Westerland. Originally built as a single-track line and later with a passing siding, the dam has been fully double-tracked since 1972. The dam is 11.3 km long; due to later land reclamation during the embankment of the

        Friedrich-Wilhelm-Lübke-Koog and Rickelsbüller Koog, only 8.1 km of this remain within the North Frisian Wadden Sea.

        The naming of the dam after Paul von Hindenburg is often the subject of debate.
