Kappeln Bascule Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The city of Kappeln has had this bascule bridge since 2002, replacing the old swing bridge. Once every hour, the bridge opens the passage for the many boats and ships that accumulate in front of this obstacle in summer. From the visitors' platform you can look directly into the boats and wish and wave a good trip from "Sehleut" to "Sehleut"!

Highlight • Bridge

The bascule bridge was built in 1992 and has a height of 15 meters. In the past, there was a swing bridge that led directly over the herring fences.

Kappeln Herring Weir

Highlight • Monument

The herring fence is one of the landmarks of our city. It was built as early as the 15th century and is regarded in Europe as the last witness of a formerly common fishing method. Soon the fence will be extensively restored.
