The Rimmelsberg Dune is a small, seven-hectare dune area in the Schleswig-Holstein municipality of Jörl. It has been protected since 1938 under designation number 24. The nature reserve consists of undulating, hilly terrain, home to numerous juniper bushes and surrounded by oak groves. With its heaths and dunes and one of the largest juniper stands in Schleswig-Holstein, it represents a unique feature in the otherwise intensively cultivated agricultural landscape. The name Rimmelsberg itself derives from the Danish rimme (Old Norse rimi), meaning a row of dunes or a mound of earth.

The nature reserve, which is only 7 hectares in size, is considered a gem. It consists of undulating terrain with numerous juniper bushes and is surrounded by oak groves. With its heaths and dunes and one of the largest juniper stands in Schleswig-Holstein, it is a special place.

Beautiful, old water mill in Lindewitt! Worth seeing and when the mill wheel turns, you can listen to the water.

The prisoners of the Husum-Schwesing concentration camp subcamp had to dig anti-tank ditches. They arrived on September 25th and October 19th, 1944, in two large transports from the Neuengamme concentration camp; there were about 2,600 prisoners in total. Most of them had to do hard labor on construction sites; many became ill after a short time. The number of prisoners unable to work rose to over 700 by the end of November. By the time the camp was dissolved on December 27th, 1944, more than 300 prisoners had died in Husum-Schwesing. Another concentration camp subcamp for building anti-tank ditches was located directly south of the Danish border, in Ladelund. On November 1st, 1944, the camp SS transferred 1,000 prisoners from the Husum-Schwesing concentration camp subcamp there.

The fire hydrant became a symbol through the design of the memorial. Its remains represent the arbitrariness with which SS men and some Kapos beat and tortured the concentration camp prisoners. They used the fire hydrant to mistreat the prisoners: the men were tied to the metal column while soaking wet or had to sit on the cover of the fire hydrant (which is now missing) and remain there. The concentration camp prisoners were subjected to numerous other forms of harassment and punishment.

The memorial plaques indicate the burial of the concentration camp prisoners in mass graves in the Husum Eastern Cemetery. At the same time, they complement the field of steles by indicating not only the name, but also the country of origin, age and profession of each known deceased. After the end of the Second World War, some of the dead buried in the Husum Eastern Cemetery were identified and their remains were transferred to their countries of origin. These reburials were completed in 1955. The grave complex was then redesigned and inaugurated in 1957. For decades, the mass graves in the Husum Eastern Cemetery were the place that the former concentration camp prisoners visited for their commemorative events. This only changed with the establishment of the memorial on the site of the former Husum-Schwesing concentration camp in 1987.
