Cuxhaven Lighthouse Dicke Berta

Cuxhaven’s Dicke Berta is a small white lighthouse with a distinctive red lantern, built in 1897 to guide ships along the Elbe. Though no longer active, it remains one of the town’s most charming historic landmarks. Set near the river and surrounding wetlands, it offers a glimpse into local maritime history and a pleasant stop for walkers and cyclists. Visitors interested in coastal heritage, quiet scenery, and lesser-known sights will find Dicke Berta a worthwhile detour.
