Regular events

In Dobrock, the most famous district of the Wingst, a large horse show takes place every year, which has been organized since 1907 by the Unterelbeschen racing, riding and driving club , which was founded in the same year. The patron of the tournament is Paul Schockemöhle . The patronage is not by chance, it expresses a great solidarity with the region, as he obtained one of the most successful show jumpers in the world, the gelding Deister from the nearby Easter break.
