geography

Geographical location

The municipality of Klixbüll is located on both sides of the transition from the Lecker Geest , a weakly relief sand formation north-east of Niebüll, to the north-west bordering North Frisian Marsch . The marshland was due to its location close to the beach in the protection of the large sand island Risummoor, one of the first areas in what is now the district of North Friesland to be diked . The land was fortified by the construction of the dike in 1466 by the neighboring residents in order to improve the settlement conditions of the village. The dyke line that was drawn at that time still represents the road connection to federal highway 5 today . From the B 5 in Klixbüll, the state road 3 goes to Ladelund .

The northern Geestland was farmed as a common land until 1723 . The west of the village was not dyed- proof until 1566 when the so-called Gotteskoog was dyed.

history

Klixbüll Church

Klixbüll was first mentioned in a document in 1352, but can be found by name in church lists as early as 1300. The St. Nicholas Church was built around 1100 and was last restored in 2010. Around 1460 it was one of the main churches of the Karrharde . Flood marks from 1532 ( All Saints Flood 1532 ) and 1634 ( Burchardi Flood ) can be found on its tower . The oldest building in the village is located on a hill next to the church, the core of the former Klixbüllhof estate.

At the point where the Bundesstrasse 199 runs through the town today, there was an outer dike until 1466, where Klixbüll first grew as a Geest village , until the Gotteskooge dike in 1566 as a marshland village .

During the Thirty Years War , Swedish troops built a powder tower in the village, but it was later destroyed. In its place was the Pulverturm restaurant until 1955.
