ニービュルの湖・トップ12

Without a sign, you wouldn't notice that you're walking into another country... It's nice how easy this can be these days.

a great swimming area, cozy seating areas and clean toilet facilities

It is only a few kilometers from Dagebüll harbor and you reach a district of Dagebüll: Fahretoft. A lovely place with lots of little thatched-roof houses on mounds. Lots of nature awaits you and if you drive a little further you will reach the Bottschloter Lake. This little spot on earth is wonderfully recommended for hikes and bike tours. https://www.dagebuell-tourismus.de/vor-ort-umgebung/orte/fahretoft

A very nice border crossing. We had very nice weather here. As you can see in the collage. Have fun on your tours!

Old landmark in the street. DRP stands for German Reich Prussia

When the province of Schleswig-Holstein was divided between Denmark and Germany after the Schleswig referendum in 1920, the new border ran through Rudbøl, dividing the town into Danish and German parts. In Rudbøl is boundary stone no. 245. This is in the middle of the road that leads from Germany to Denmark. To the west of the road is the Danish side of the border, to the east is the German side. Rudbøl originally had three inns, two of which are still in use. The Grænsekro inn has existed in the village since 1711, which has bought a few houses and rents them out as holiday apartments. There is a campsite next to the inn. There is also a youth hostel in Rudbøl. On today's German side there is the former Rosenkranz Kro, which is now called Alter Deutscher Grenzkrug and is located in the Rosenkranz district of the municipality of Aventoft.

Geese can be seen all year round. Barnacle geese can be found in January as well as in July. Brent geese can be seen in mid-April and greylag geese all year round.

Fething (North Frisian: di / jü Feeding) is a special water storage basin on the Halligen and terps in the marshland on the German and Dutch North Sea coasts. Fethinge are rainwater collecting basins that were usually used as cattle troughs and give the impression of a normal pond. Mostly they were created at the highest point, i.e. in the middle of the Hallig or Terft. Since the surface water of the meadows and thus possibly also dung could get into Fethinge, they were usually not suitable as reservoirs for drinking water. For this purpose, a separate cistern, the so-called Sood, was created, in which the rainwater from the roofs could collect. Drinking water was a precious commodity on the Halligen and in the marshland. Due to the island location and the small size of a Hallig, even the groundwater consists of salt water. The Fethinge only lost its task in the middle of the 20th century when the water supply was gradually expanded. In the meantime, the still existing fethings have been placed under monument protection. Source: Wikipedia
