In 1896, the new church was completed according to plans by the Hamburg architect Hugo Groothoff. Parts of the foundation and building materials (fieldstone) were likely reused. This makes it a new church by Wörgl standards. The previous building dates back to the 13th century, not from Vicelin's era.

A warm hello to everyone! For over 100 years, the Hohwacht & Lippe Fishing Association has represented the interests of local fishermen and their families. It is the professional and part-time representative of fishermen in Hohwacht and Lippe. In keeping with the association's original purpose, it serves the fishermen in its area and promotes camaraderie. Fishing as an economic factor has been declining for years. The fishing association therefore preserves traditions and memories of the times when fishing in Hohwacht was a central source of family income and social cohesion in the community. With events held around the fishing huts in Alt-Hohwacht, we remain committed to tradition, our members, guests, and the community. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your support and active participation in our events. We invite all our guests and friends of Hohwacht to support our cause by becoming a member of the association. Simply apply for your membership online here for an annual fee of €10.

The Sehlendorfer Binnensee nature reserve is located in the municipality of Blekendorf Sehlendorf. It is crossed by a hiking trail that takes you to the most interesting places and offers breathtaking views from two platforms, among other things. The Sehlendorfer Binnensee is one of the few beach lakes on the Baltic coast that still has an open connection to the Baltic Sea, the Broeck. This increases the salt content in the lake when Baltic Sea water flows in and decreases when the water level is lower. The changing salt content is crucial for a very special animal and plant world in this protected area. The wall is partially over-thinned and is home to beach grass and beach rye as well as protected sea thistles. A typical dry grassland with silver grass, sand sedge, stonecrop and dune pansies has developed on it. On the beach itself, sea whitlow, potash saltwort, sea kale and sea mustard thrive on the protected areas. https://www.hohwachterbucht.de/entspannen-und-geniessen/natur-erleben/sehlendorfer-binnensee
