Tips

🌥️ Lothar gegen den Wind ...🌥️

January 7, 2022

As early as 1875, the position of Borkumriff (53 ° 47'North 6 ° 22'East) - located about 30 kilometers northwest of Borkum and also known as the ship cemetery due to the concrete-hard sandbanks - was occupied by a lightship. The Borkum beacon was no longer visible to shipping because of the curvature of the earth at this altitude.

Very interesting and informative, unfortunately there are no more guided tours since Corona, you have to explore it on your own. It's still fine, you just have to be careful that you take all descents with you and otherwise miss some rooms 😬😅
