    It is still unclear when exactly Gamshurst was populated - perhaps even before the birth of Christ: Between 1810 and 1885, Gaulish gold coins were found several times in the Gamshurst district.
    There are many exciting stories to be read here. Witch burning, wars and more.

    The church of St. Nicholas is particularly worth seeing. You can read the history of the church on a blackboard.

    Possibly the church with the most stork nests?

    One of the many churches dedicated to Saint Nicholas. The Achern district of Gamshurst also has the three golden balls in the town's coat of arms, which are considered to be an attribute of Saint Nicholas. According to a legend, he helped three girls out of poverty with these gifts and they were able to marry honorably thanks to this dowry.
