    Tips

    In 1783 three packing houses were built in Tönning, Kiel-Holtenau and Rendsburg at the same time. From 1784 these packing houses were to serve as goods transshipment points and storage areas along the new Schleswig-Holstein Canal (Eider Canal).
    At the time of the Elbe blockade from 1803-1807, Tönning served as an alternative port for Hamburg and handled almost all goods destined for the large Hanseatic city. At that time the packing house was full of a wide variety of products, including fine spices such as saffron, wine, nuts, tobacco, coffee, lemons, animal hides and skins, meat, fish, marble, windows, mirrors and much more . After the Elbe blockade, this hustle and bustle ended and the packing house was no longer fully utilized.
    When today's Kiel Canal was opened in 1895, the heyday of trade in Tönning ended and the packing house lost its original importance. Since then, parts of the packing house have repeatedly been used as storage space, but most of the building was empty.

        The building characterizes the port.
