A great view in every season; being able to see the frozen lagoon in winter is something special.

Here, at the end of the pier, you have the most beautiful view of the Saaler Bodden. No obstacles obstruct the view, and in good weather, you can see far beyond. Everyone will find the perfect photo opportunity here.

St. Ewald's Church in Bodstedt is a former pilgrimage chapel in the Bodstedt district of the Western Pomeranian municipality of Fuhlendorf. St. Ewald's Church in Bodstedt is a brick church built in the 15th century and originally served as a pilgrimage chapel. It is one of the oldest churches in the region and a blend of North German Brick Gothic and Baroque church art. A later addition from 1785 adds a round-arch window to the western part of the church.
