Schlossgang (Husum)

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The castle corridor connects the market place with the Husumer castle on a short way. The attractive pedestrian zone and its charming specialty shops invite you to linger and shop with the beautiful backdrop of the house.

Castle outside Husum

Highlight • Castle

The castle was originally in front of the city and is surrounded by water on the castle island. There you will find the Pole Poppenspäler Museum with figures from all over the world. The annual crocus bloom in spring is famous when it blooms intensely purple in the castle park.

Husum Castle Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

Far beyond Schleswig-Holstein's borders, the crocus flower is known and makes the castle park a popular destination, a place to stroll and a photo opportunity. At this purple time, the Husum Crocus Blossom Festival is celebrated with a choice of Husum crocus queen.
The park is designed as a landscaped garden. The entrance to the castle park is overshadowed by a sandstone portal from the early 17th century. The Storm monument in the park was created by the famous Husum sculptor Adolf Brütt and unveiled on the occasion of Storm's 10th year of death on 14 September 1898.
Walk through the park, find a quiet corner, browse through a bench in your favorite book, or just enjoy the tranquility in the immediate vicinity of the city. The park is also popular with active people, e.g. for jogging or Nordic walking or thanks to the 2017 created movement park. A shady, approximately 130m ² large nature boules area invites you to play bowls on several lanes.
By the way: The castle park is worth a visit in every season: in autumn attracts a colorful and golden play of colors to the small "Indian summer" in Husum and also in winter dress invites the Husum castle park for a walk - weather and light let the old giant trees then seem more mysterious ...
The Schlosspark also has a playground and public toilets.

The »golden step«.
Dike protection on four legs. Look at the dyke here: This is a Schard dyke. "Swarm" means that
it is right on the water - this is where the linguistic proximity to the English term »shore« comes into play
clear. Crowded dykes have no protective foreland to protect against the incoming water
takes power. The foot of the dike is protected by the so-called revetment, the outer layer
stones, concrete or asphalt. The dyke core consists of sand, on which a layer of clay soil of approx
one meter thick: Clay is heavy and contains clay. The grass cover grows on top:
tents the soil and protects the soil layers from erosion by wind and water. Must be well cared for
be the lawn - that's exactly the job of the dyke sheep. With their weight of almost 100 kilograms, distributed
on four claws, they do not damage the turf, but trample it down again and again:
You have the »golden kick«.(...from information board)

The inland port, which has existed since the Middle Ages, still dries up today at low tide. In the outer harbor you can buy freshly caught crabs directly from the cutter.
