Museum Ships at Ratsdelft Harbor

Highlight • Historical Site

As early as 1887, the rear, northern part of the Ratsdelft with the connection to the Alter Graben was filled in and the city garden was created there, so that the Delft as a water arm or harbor basin only extends as far as the Emden town hall. The harbor basin ends there with the Delft steps that were built at the time. After the Second World War, citizens filled most of the Ratsdelft with rubble. [wikipedia]

Part of the Ratsdelft is now used as a berth for museum ships. The lightship Amrumbank, the sea rescue cruiser Georg Breusing and the herring lugger Stadt Emden are moored in the harbor. The Delft Staircase now serves as a pier for harbor tours. [wikipedia]

Ottifanten Traffic Light at Otto Huus

Highlight • Structure

The comedian Otto designed his self-portrait as a traffic light man himself - including the flying hair. The red man, however, is standardized - no jumping Otto, just a standing, boring stick figure. The comedian hopes quite Otto-like: “Then no one will cross the street when it is red! And not with green either. Everyone would stop and look at the traffic lights. Then it wouldn't always be so hectic in the city. ”The traffic lights should cost around 2500 euros each.

Dat Otto Huus

Highlight • Monument

Otto, Germany's most famous comedian, the most successful comedian south of the Eider, the city's greatest son, has his own house dedicated to him in Emden.
It is a rarity: A museum where you can laugh!
Many millions of people have seen Otto on stage, on television, or in the cinema. They have read his books and listened to his records or CDs. Or fallen in love with his Ottifanten. In the Otto Huus, all this and much more can be marveled at again.
In the Otto-Kino, sketches from his stage shows, excerpts from TV programs, and Otto's films are shown – from "Otto der Film", the first one, to the cinema hit "7 Zwerge".

Delftspucker sculptures in Emden

Highlight • Monument

I think the sculpture in front of the Emden Sparkasse is very popular. The so-called Delftspucker stands for the good-for-nothing, who corn around 1900 at this point and supply themselves with Emder Gossip. To ensure that they do not run out of spit, they mix the chewing tobacco into a viscous pulp and spit the "Slaatje" into Delft. Mmmmmh, delicious, and that's exactly why I count the Delftspucker among the top sights in Emden.

Emden Harbour Gate

Highlight • Monument

The gate itself had its place at that time between the Long Bridge and the street Am Delft, where the Emsmauer met the Delft. It was built in 1635 - in the vicinity of a customs house and a tower, the Blue Tower.
