Tips from the Community
This square, within sight of the castle, was used as a trading and marketplace even before the city was fortified in 1536, as the fertile marshland for agricultural produce lay nearby. The May Market, St. John's Market, St. Michael's Market, and Winter Night Market were established institutions throughout the year for the trade of goods and vegetables, as well as for entertainment. Livestock was the focus of the St. Martin's Market: up to 1,000 head of cattle, 300 horses, and hundreds of sheep, goats, and pigs changed hands on a single market day during its heyday around 1900. Today, the Kiewitt Market in spring and the Brüll Market in autumn commemorate this time. As a result of this long market activity, many restaurants and hotels, as well as banks and department stores, have settled here. In 1888, the Concerthaus, a social club with halls and stage equipment, was built. Later, for 50 years, it served as a movie theater, bringing a sense of big-city flair to Jever with performances by many artists. (Stadt-jever.de)

With a tailwind, it's a lot of fun; with a headwind, it's a great workout. But: always watch out for the sheep ;)

A ride right along the dyke. What could be nicer? Be careful, depending on the wind and the direction you are travelling, there is sometimes a strong headwind.

Dangast is particularly worth a visit in summer. Stop by the spa house, a visit here is also a tradition for locals.
