The Amsinck House in the Sönke-Nissen-Koog is an information and service center that specializes in the nature and culture of central North Frisia. It is located directly on the dike in front of the Hamburger Hallig and offers an exciting exhibition about the history and natural treasures of the region.
The Amsinck House was named after the Hamburg merchant family Amsinck, who made a significant contribution to the embankment of the Hamburger Hallig. Since 1985, the Hallig has been part of the Schleswig-Holstein Wadden Sea National Park and is under special protection. The house provides information about the flora and fauna of the Wadden Sea, the importance of the dikes and sustainable agriculture in the region.
One of the highlights of the Amsinck House is a multimedia exhibition, which is supplemented by radio plays, films and interactive stations. Visitors can learn interesting facts about dike construction, the energy industry and agriculture in North Frisia. Guided tours and mudflat hikes are also offered, providing a deeper insight into the nature and history of the area.
The Amsinck House is also an ideal starting point for walks and bike tours to the Hamburger Hallig. A bike rental and a camper van parking space are available, and the nearby Hallig-Krog restaurant offers culinary delights in a unique location.
