Interesting building.
The four propeller pumps can be seen clearly through the large windows and also parts of the exhibition. Unfortunately, there was no sign saying when the next tour would be. But it is worth taking a look at this building.

Pumping station Wangerland

The pumping station in Horumersiel serves to drain the Sielacht Wangerland via the Wanger low into the North Sea.

There is also an exhibition downstairs in the building, but it was closed today.

The building has large windows so that the large pumps can be seen clearly.
The four propeller pumps are capable of pumping a total of 54,000 liters of water per second from the Hohenstief to the Wangertief.

If you are in the area and interested in technology, a short visit is definitely worthwhile.
