Unmissable place for someone knowing the mivies with the local comedian Otto. The car park is a bit offside what i like creating photos without cars. Unfortunately some years ago a frame for the famous "love locks" was placed in front of the lighthous what is reallyturbing the scenery. Also, bear in mind when visiting on the weekend or public vacation days the large number of tourists.

So it was nice to see the famous Otto Lighthouse in person, but I got to say that I was quite disappointed by how it was maintained. There was graffiti all over the tower. At least only where a human being can reach. So, in the end, I was disappointed, especially after cycling from Norden to Pilsum and back, which equates to around 50km. Nice to see but not a must have for me

Beautiful but no access to the sea. We tried for about an hour to find a place nearby where we could approach the water, but all the paths that Google suggested were closed, although in fact there is a road there, but there is a barrier everywhere. It’s definitely impossible to get through with a car, but there’s no way to the sea on foot either. So you can only look at the sea about 1 km or more from you. We tried to walk in one direction and the other for about 2-3 km, but this also did not give any results in finding the road to the sea

A place worth coming. It was an amazing experience seeing so many sheep, and the fresh air is incredible, i felt super close to the nature. You might want to take a long walk there, but keep in mind it’s always windy, don’t forget to bring a jacket.

Very cute and picture perfect! Surreal atmosphere.. even the windy day made it interesting to visit!

Impressive lighthouse architecture and delightful landscape view! I reached it easily by bus and walked. The best to visit is weekday with wonderful weather in order to avoid crowds and kids. #ecotourism #single #childfree #hiking

Came here because of Otto Waalkes. Very nice place that's not too crowded

Not as exciting as the nearby Pilsum Lighthouse but interesting to anyone who likes lighthouses, for their often undeniable beauty and their history. It was raining when I visited so I did not venture up to the observation deck. The on-the-grounds coffee shop and ticket booth for entrance to the tower, was a good place to stop my bike tour fo a little while, wait out the falling rain and talk to the very entertaining manager of the facility.

Top !👍

Lovely lighthouse with great view of the northsea. €4/person for entry.

Germany's tallest lighthouse. Built in 1898. Amazing view after 320 steps up.

Super

Great exercise and wonderful panoramic views of the osfreislanscafe

Was open yet closes???? Confusing either way. Toilets were locked

As a filming location from a famous movie with a lacal comedian we were about to visit this place. Unfortunately closed...

(Translated by Google) Our children's wedding yesterday was wonderful thanks to the Osterburg team. Everything was prepared with so much love. The employees are incredibly friendly and attentive. Thank you very much for the unforgettable day. (Original) Die Hochzeit von unseren Kinder am gestrigen Tag war Dank dem Team der Osterburg wunderschön. Alles wurde mit so viel Liebe hergerichtet. Die Mitarbeiter sind unfassbar freundlich und aufmerksam. Ganz herzlichen Dank für den unvergesslichen Tag.

(Translated by Google) We went there last night, Friday, for dinner. Service, both very friendly, atmosphere good. My husband ordered a grilled plate, we have eaten better, lots of fries, very strong meatballs, too salted, when we asked the two waitresses about it, the answer came, was passed on, no further reaction from the kitchen, a shame. The coleslaw made from red cabbage, simply served in a bowl without any further preparation. Mini portion of tzatziki is included, so we recommend ordering tzatziki as a starter. I had the gyro burger, which was okay for me. All in all, the conclusion for us is that things can be better. (Original) Wir waren gestern Abend, Freitag zum Abendessen dort angemeldet. Bedienungen, beide sehr freundlich, Ambiente gut. Mein Mann bestellte einen Grillteller, wir haben schon besser gegessen, viele Pommes, Frikadelle sehr stark, zu stark gesalzen, als wir die beiden Bedienungen darauf angesprochen haben, kam die Antwort, wurde weitergegeben, keine weitere Reaktion aus der Küche, schade. Der Krautsalat aus rotem Kohl, ohne weiter Anrichtung einfach in einem Schälchen. Beigabe Mini-Portion Tzaziki, daher zu empfehlen direkt Tzaziki als Vorspeise mitzubestellen. Ich hatte den Gyros Burger, war für mich okay. Alles in allem für uns das Fazit, dass es besser geht.

(Translated by Google) Cool location! We were invited to a wedding here! It was a buffet. Friendly, very attentive staff! Delicious food! (The meatballs with mint 😍) (Original) Coole Location! Wir waren auf einer Hochzeit hier eingeladen! In Form von Buffet. Freundliches sehr aufmerksames Team! Leckeres Essen ! ( Die Frikadellen mit Minze 😍 )

(Translated by Google) A cozy café, there is delicious coffee and cake, very nice, friendly service. Take a look, we really enjoyed it. There is a nice terrace when the weather is good (Original) Ein gemütliches Café, es gibt leckeren Kaffee u Kuchen,sehr nette freundliche Bedienung. Schaut mal vorbei,uns hat es sehr gut gefallen. Es gibt bei gutem Wetter eine schöne Terrasse

(Translated by Google) I think it depends a lot on the time of year and the weather how beautiful it is here. Unfortunately it was very overcast where we were and it rained off and on throughout the days. Since the side paths, apart from the main path, are only trails, it quickly becomes muddy and muddy. With the thick trees, you can only see half of the castle out of the woods. The restaurant may be very good, but since you're not allowed to enter the castle (but understandably so), it's perhaps worth a stop, but it's not really suitable as a destination. With a little work, the facility could be really beautiful and could also serve as a destination in its own right. (Original) Ich glaube es ist sehr von der Jahreszeit und dem Wetter abhängig wie schön es hier ist. Leider war es bei uns sehr bedeckt und es hat die Tage immer wieder geregnet. Da außer auf dem Hauptweg die Nebenwege nur Trampelpfade sind wird es hier schnell schlammig und matschig. Die Burg sieht man bei dichten Bäumen auch nur so halb aus dem Wäldchen heraus. Ggf. ist das Lokal sehr gut aber da die Burg leider (aber verständlicher weiße) nicht betreten werden darf ist es vielleicht ein Zwischenhalt wert aber taugt nicht wirklich was als Ausflugsziel. Mit ein etwas Arbeit könnte die Anlage wirklich wunder schön sein und würde auch als eigenes Ausflugsziel herhalten.

(Translated by Google) Grothusen is a place in the Krummhörn that is not particularly well developed for tourists. You just drive through. On our way through Grothusen we spontaneously stopped at the Osterburg. It was definitely worth it, we received a friendly welcome, even without a prior reservation. Got a great window seat in the upstairs room. The menu offers something for everyone. We had the burger and the fish with pumpkin vegetables. Very tasty and sufficient. We were happy to pay 50 cents in energy costs. We'd love to come back! (Original) Grothusen ist in der Krummhörn ein eher nicht so turistisch erschlossener Ort. Man fährt eben mal durch. Wir haben auf unserem Weg durch Grothusen spontan an der Osterburg halt gemacht. Es hat sich auf jeden Fall gelohnt, wir wurden, auch ohne vorherige Reservierung, freundlich empfangen. Bekamen einen tollen Fensterplatz in der Upkammer. Die Speisekarte bietet für jeden etwas. Wir hatten den Burger und den Fisch mit Kürbisgemüse. Sehr lecker und ausreichend. Gerne haben wir 50 Cent Energiekosten gezahlt. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

(Translated by Google) Very friendly staff takes the recommended reservation on the phone. Access on board with seat allocation is quick and easy. Accessibility is provided to and on the main deck. Departure on time and relaxed sayings from the skipper ensure a pleasant journey. Along the way, a lot of interesting facts are explained and filled with donuts and sailor's yarn. The journey through the Leybucht with the lock through the Leysiel lock is very pleasant. The upper deck offers direct contact with all climatic conditions and a beautiful view. The on-board bistro is well prepared to satisfy your hunger pangs. Hard-working staff serve passengers at the tables at moderate prices. It was nice!! (Original) Sehr freundliches Personal nimmt am Telefon die empfohlene Reservierung entgegen. Der Zutritt an Bord mit Platzzuweisung geht unkompliziert und zügig. Barrierefreiheit ist zum und auf dem Hauptdeck gegeben. Pünktliches ablegen und lockere Sprüche vom Schiffsführer sorgen für eine angenehme Fahrt. Unterwegs wird viel wissenswertes erklärt und mit Döntjes und Seemannsgarn aufgefüllt. Die Fahrt durch die Leybucht mit Schleusung durch die Schleuse Leysiel ist sehr angenehm. Das Oberdeck bietet direkten Kontakt zu allen klimatischen Bedingungen und eine schöne Aussicht. Gegen den kleinen Hunger ist das Bordbistro gut vorbereitet. Fleißiges Personal versorgt die Fahrgäste zu moderaten Preisen an den Tischen. Schön war's!!

(Translated by Google) The staff was good, the captain was rude because he aborted the trip through the lock; he felt ignored because two people were not seated in front of the lock early enough!! (Original) Das Personal gut, der Kapitän war unhöflich weil er die Fahrt durch die Schleuse abgebrochen hat, er fühlte sich übergangen weil 2 Personen nicht früh genug vor der Schleuse gesessen haben!!
