The historic old town in the North Sea resort of Otterndorf is characterized by small, cosy alleyways that are well worth a stroll: cobblestones and half-timbered houses, baroque gables and "witches' brooms" as well as small rose bushes and blessings on house facades.

As well as strolling through the cobbled streets, it is of course also worth visiting our "main street", where small shops and boutiques invite you to stroll and browse - and of course a detour to the city park on Süderwall.

Our former castle, which now houses the district court, is also located in the historic old town. As you stroll through the district court garden, you will pass the gatehouse and the former prison and discover part of our sculpture collection. You will then find more sculptures on the banks of the Medem (our sculpture park).

These streets - as well as the Norderwall and Süderwall - can be visited on a walk through the historic old town:
