The official names of the two lighthouses in the north of Sylt are: "List-West" and "List-Ost" - making them the northernmost lighthouses in Germany. For about 14 nautical miles, the lighthouses show the ships the right course.

September 28, 2022,Runde zum Nördlichsten Punkt von Deutschland

After I was on one of my hut tours at the southernmost point of Germany near Oberstdorf three years ago, of course I also had to go to the northernmost..

North to south - as the crow flies approx. 856 km.
