history

Today's Sandkrug was first mentioned under the name Streek in 1275 in the fiefdom register of the Counts of Oldenburg. The village was named Sandkrug when the Sandkrug, a station for travelers and mail riders and their horses, was built in front of the dunes of the Osenberg Mountains. Such was needed after the "Oldenburgische fahrende Post" began its service in 1734.

Culture

There was a printing museum in Sandkrug, which opened in 1989 and closed again in 2016 after the founder Horst Kolter passed away in 2014. Since 2010, visitors arriving at the Sandkruger train station have been greeted by a bronze group of sculptures called Osenzwerge. This is an artistic implementation of the regional saga about a dwarf people living in the Osenberg Mountains by the local artist Johannes Cernota . The legend comes from the 165th legend in the German book of legends by Ludwig Bechstein .
