Coastal protection and dyke construction was a dramatic battle with the forces of nature for over 10 centuries.

The Land Wursten Dike Museum shows dike construction and coastal protection in Lower Saxony's coastal region. In particular, however, the regional history of dyke construction with a focus on the Weser-Elbe triangle from the first beginnings to the present day is vividly illustrated with a large number of exhibits. Among them are the former working tools, models of dyke constructions and coastal protection facilities and, in addition, many historical documents.
