Heide

Heide

Heide is a city in the western part of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, and the capital of Dithmarschen County. Its name means "health" in German. The exact year of its establishment is unknown, but it was the main village in the region by 1447 and developed into a town in the 19th century. It is now a popular tourist destination.

Heide’s market square is one of the largest in Germany and transforms into a bustling market every Saturday, offering a wide variety of goods to meet the needs of locals. The water tower is a landmark of the city, surrounded by an elegant small park, with its rooms often repurposed for other uses. Heide Town Hall was built in 1963 and was the city’s first skyscraper at the time. The St. George Fountain, completed in 1989, is a must-see attraction.
