The well-known pile dwellings can be seen at every bathing area on the beach in St. Peter-Ording. The high stilt houses defy the North Sea seven meters above the beach. The pile dwellings are one of the landmarks of St. Peter-Ording on the Eiderstedt peninsula. 100 years ago the pile dwellings were called “poison stalls”.

Nowadays, the pile-dwelling restaurants in particular are worth a visit during your holiday in Eiderstedt. Source: spo-eiderstedt.de/poi/pfahlhäusern
