Fire Service Museum

  • During their Sylt holiday, fans of fire engines and flashing lights shouldn't skip a trip to the Fire Service Museum in Keitum.
  • The most miniature museum on the island is located in the former fire engine house of the Keitum fire department, directly across from the old fire station.
  • Items related to the fascinating work of the Fire Service have been on display here since 1998. With countless old photographs, uniforms, and historical fire extinguishers, this 1911-built structure showcases 100 years of fire service history.
  • Visitors also learn a lot of fascinating information about the risks and potential burn risks associated with the work of the fire service from retired service members.
  • Free admission and guided tours are offered, but the organisers and volunteers would appreciate a small donation in appreciation for their tireless efforts.
  • Every Tuesday between April and October, the museum is typically open from 10:30 am to 1:00 pm.
  • Please contact the Keitum Tourist Service for details on opening hours during the winter or any potential changes.

Cemetery of the Homeless

  • A "Friedhof der Heimatlosen" or "Cemetery of the Homeless" was a graveyard primarily for people who had died after being washed ashore due to shipwrecks or severe storms.
  • These cemeteries held the remains of those who could not be identified due to a lack of information about them or their hometown.
  • These first appeared in the eighteenth century, and by the end of the nineteenth century, at the latest, they had spread to numerous coastal regions.
  • Temporary burials of the deceased had been performed in the past to protect visitors from being scared off by the bodies lying around.
  • Such a cemetery exists in Westerland. It was constructed in 1855 and served as the final resting place for those who died and were found on Sylt's beaches.
  • A wooden cross with the victim's discovery date and the location was placed on each grave. The Queen of Romania visited Sylt at the end of the 19th century, and the victims' plight so saddened her that she had a plaque to remember them.
  • It read, "We are a people from the currents of time. Before the Savior takes us home, we are washed onto the earthen isle full of misfortune and heartbreak.
  • As fortune changes daily, our paternal house is always close by. The Golgotha Cross serves as a shelter for the homeless.

Sylt Off the Beaten Track

Denghoog

  • Visitors to Sylt should not pass up the chance to visit Wenningstedt, the giant burial mound in northwest Europe.
  • How this massive stone grave could have been constructed more than 5000 years ago is still a mystery.
  • The Denghoog stage of the Neolithic is the name given to the burial mound. The name "Denghoog" means "Thing Hill" in Söl'ring, a form of the Frisian language used on Sylt. In old German law, public and court gatherings were referred to as "Things" (ing).
  • These gatherings were held on elevated ground and always in the open. It's also possible that people held court hearings here in the past.
  • However, the Denghoog was first constructed as a burial site in the 4th century B.C.
  • The vault, which served as a burial chamber at the time, measures 3 metres in width, between 1.5 and 1.9 metres in height, and is just under 5 metres long.
  • Heavy boulders from the Ice Age weighing 18 tonnes make up the chamber. Rather than using the original entrance, a small corridor, today's visitors access the tomb from above.

Local History Museum

  • Keitum's Sylt Local History Museum is housed in a former captain's home that dates back to 1759. Here is an impressive collection of artefacts from Sylt's past.
  • Numerous examples of Frisian culture are vividly displayed throughout the museum, including traditional clothing, jewellery, home furnishings, and tools.
  • The museum's lower jaw entrance allows visitors to enter and immediately begin learning about the island's turbulent past.
  • Visitors to the museum's Geology Section are fascinated by Sylt's turbulent evolutionary past. Visitors learn how Sylt's core formed during the second most recent Ice Age and how, over the centuries, repeated changes in the sea level shaped the island—which, by the way, wasn't always an island—and repeatedly drove inhabitants to leave.
  • Many megalithic tombs attest to the region's earliest Neolithic settlements. The wealth of those people is evidenced by the ornate burial items from the Bronze Age.
  • Visitors learn more about the history of sea travel, trips to Greenland, and whaling through model ships, images, and instruments.
  • The Sylt Local History Museum's art gallery features works by notable Sylt artists like Dierks, Feddersen, and Weidemann. Weidemann was skilled at capturing Sylt's personality in vivid paintings. 
  • The "Sylt Personalities" section includes individuals like constitutional reformer Uwe Jens Lornsen.
  • History buffs must visit the Sylt Local History Museum, but everyone should take advantage of the chance to see Sylt's treasures.

Food

#Food

  • Unlike most major cities, Sylt offers a greater variety of cuisines. Dishes made with local ingredients from the island's herb gardens and fishing nets are at the top of the delectable menus.
  • The oysters on Sylt are the freshest anywhere because they are grown on the only oyster farm in Germany, which occupies a 30-hectare area in the Wattenmeer mudflats off the coast of List.
  • Local goods are very well-liked. Therefore, "FEINheimisch" was established by producers and consumers.
  • Perhaps the two most well-known members of this group are Johannes King from Söl'ring Hof and Alexandro Pape from Brot & Bier.
  • "FEINheimisch" was joined by the Johannsen family from the Keitum hotel Benen-Diken Hof as well as Britta Wonneberger and Rüdiger Meyer with their beach restaurant.
  • Even outside the island's boundaries, Sylt is renowned for its hospitality. Numerous Sylt restaurants have received top honours repeatedly from respected food publications like Michelin and Gault Millau.
  • But it's not necessary to consume caviar every day. It can also be lovely to end the day watching the North Sea sunset from the terrace of a beach cafe while sipping wine.

  • Children's and young adults' tournaments are given special attention to foster ambition and fair play.
  • In Sylt, there are many brand-new, attractive playgrounds. The playgrounds in Sylt are listed below so kids can play to their hearts' content and let off some steam. Which one would be the most practical for you? Learn more!
  • A horse's saddle (or pony) is the most contented place on earth. The island locals have established some riding schools and stables where you can participate in guided pony rides, treks for novices and experts, lunging lessons, and pony tours around the tidelands because they also recognise the wisdom in this proverb.
  • Higher, quicker, and farther. When kids get on the trampoline, this is all that goes through their minds. On the island of Sylt, there are many places where your kids can trampoline while being watched, so why don't you stand by and watch?
  • Children can race on a safe track in mini-cross starting at six and up. Although helmets are provided, you must also bring long pants and sturdy shoes. Attentive, skilled service personnel keep an eye on the tiny mini-crossers.
