Guided Story
Imagine standing here in front of a sentinel of the sea, guiding ships safely for over a century. Look up, the lighthouse rises 26 meters into the sky, a true landmark. To your left is the Zoo am Meer, and if you listen closely, you might hear the waves gently lapping against the banks of the Weser. Behind you to the south is the Emigrant Monument, a poignant reminder of the many who embarked on new journeys from here. The best time to be here is just before sunset. The lighthouse is bathed in a warm, golden glow as the sun dips below the horizon.
