The Hollerwettern is a waterway with a lighthouse or leading light in the northwest of the municipality of Wewelsfleth in Schleswig-Holstein and is also the namesake of the local district.

The Hollerwettern, which is over 3 km long, drains the part of the Wilstermarsch located between Wewelsfleth and Brokdorf and flows into the Elbe via a pumping station. It is first mentioned in documents at the end of the 14th century; it was probably created as a result of the Holler colonization.

The old Hollerwettern lighthouse, located near its mouth, as well as the new lower leading light Hollerwettern, belonging to the Hollerwettern/Brokdorf leading light, are also named after the waterway.

View of the Störsperrwerk

Highlight • Monument

The barrier was built from 1971 to 1975 in the wake of the 1962 storm surge to protect against storm surges. A new muzzle was dug north of the old one. The old estuary is now used as a port. The federal road 431 runs over the barrier, which connects the Wilstermarsch with the Krempermarsch.

View over the Wilsterau

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very close to Wilster you have a very beautiful view of the Wilsterau. Here it flows gently meandering through a flat landscape with wide fields and meadows.
