geography

Lake Elliensdeepwehle on the Adolfskoog

Sandwiches on the marrow

Uelvesbüll is a rural municipality that was formed from the districts of Uelvesbüll and Barneckermoor. It is located about ten kilometers southwest of Husum on the Eiderstedt peninsula on the Heverstrom . A few kilometers to the east run the federal highway 5 and the Marschbahn , which connects Husum and Heide here . Uelvesbüll includes the Uelvesbüllkoog and part of the Adolfskoog , in the north-west of which is the Wester-Spätige nature reserve . It has existed since 1978 with a size of 27 hectares and is looked after by NABU . As early as the 16th century, material for dyke construction was spared here .

Four Wehlen characterize the immediate landscape at the Porrendeich. These are bodies of water that were created when dykes were breached in the 16th century through deep scouring . These depressions were not refilled after the new dyke was built.
In the east-west direction, the Wehlen have the following names:

• Elliensdeepwehle
• Sandwiches
• Schluppwehle
• Great choice.

The village of Uelvesbüll was a parish with the villages of Barnekermoor, Bös-söwen, Porrendeich, Westerdeich, Norderfriedrichskoog and Schiedhörn (as of 1710).

history

Second Marcellus flood

Before the second Marcellus flood in 1362, the old town of Uelvesbüll, which sank during this storm surge, belonged to the Edomsharde from the Strand . Many of the houses and farms at that time were located further north and west in today's mudflats. The district of Barneckermoor was originally an independent parish and had its own church. At that time Barneckermoor was already part of the Everschop Harde . Later Barneckermoor was merged with the parish of Uelvesbüll.

As a result of the enlargement of the Hever , the new place Uelvesbüll had to be relocated to the southern area. After the flood, which also destroyed the first church, Uelvesbüll was then part of the Harde Everschop.

St. Nikolai Church

St. Nikolai Church

The second church, built after the flood, had to be demolished in 1854 due to its dilapidation. The Protestant St. Nikolai Church, surrounded by the cemetery, was erected in the style of a classicist-neo-Gothic brick building within six months and was inaugurated on October 6, 1854. Because the Danish King Friedrich VII had granted a building subsidy, the church was called Friedrichkirche from 1854 to 1964. In the church building there is a wood-carved epitaph from 1591, which went down in art history as the Volkmarsche epitaph . On October 3, 1867, the parish elected the young theologian Christian Jensen (1839–1900) as its pastor. In 1873 Jensen went to Breklum and in 1876 founded the Schleswig-Holstein Evangelical Lutheran Mission Society .

The only preserved and playable pneumatic organ in Eiderstedt is in the church - built in 1910 by the Apenrad-based organ building company Marcussen & Søn .

Uelvesbüller wreck

Uelvesbüller wreck

During sluice construction work in Uelvesbüller Koog, the wreck of a flat-bottomed, smooth-sided cargo ship was found in July 1994 . The dendrochronological examination of the oak wood revealed that the keel was laid around 1600. About twenty years later there was an accident off the Adolfskoog : the freighter sank into a tidal channel. After the salvage and a two-year stabilization phase in a sugar solution, the wreck has been on display in the Nordfriesland Maritime Museum since April 1998 .
