one of 3 large, historic windmills on the island of Föhr

If you're ever on Föhr, you're bound to pass by. And a view of the island from the island through the island is of course a must.

House and filming location of the series "Therapy"

Spectacular location...it's enough to make you jealous. Simply great.

A section of beach that is not so crowded. Great view of Amrum and especially Sylt.

A literary monument – albeit one that seems rather bizarre in the context of the story – has been erected by the Spanish author Miguel de CERVANTES to the windmills with which our ancestors used the energy of the wind (instead of human or animal muscle power) to move the large and heavy millstones centuries ago: His novel hero “DON QUIXOTE”, who is also well known in Germany, albeit tragically (sometimes under the derisive name “Knight of the Sorrowful Countenance”), bravely faces them, because in one of the wonderfully narrated episodes he believes when he sees them that they are giants with four arms and wants to defeat them in a knightly duel.

Nowadays, they are rarely used for their original purpose, but are often just technical and historical monuments to a long tradition of craftsmanship: the heavy millstones inside were moved using the power of the wind as the driving force, for example to grind grain into flour (so-called grain mills) or to press oil from fruits (e.g. olives) (so-called oil mills). These old windmills are therefore the best proof that people were clever enough to harness the power of the wind a number of centuries ago - long before the discovery of electricity and the inventions that followed.
