Sheringham - Otterndorf Twinning Association
Covering Sheringham, the Runtons, Holt and surrounding villages in association with the Cromer Times and North Walsham Times
Twenty four members have recently returned from their biennial visit to Sheringham's German Twin town Otterndorf. Guests were hosted for the five night stay, with many friendships renewed and new ones being made.
The highlight of the visit was the visit to the island of Neuwerk, travelling the 10 kilometres by horse and cart and returning at high tide by ship.
We had an official welcome from the Burgermeister when we presented him with two lobsters for the town kindly donated by the Sheringham Society, which are now on display inside the crab pot given on a previous visit.
Hosts and guests joined together for a BBQ one evening at a local farm and, like Sheringham, there were numerous events taking place over the weekend, a triathlon, fireworks over the lake and an evening of free

admission visits to all the town museums.
We travelled on a ferry across the River Elbe to visit Rendsburg situated by the Kiel Canal where we saw the numerous ways of crossing the Canal and watched the massive container ships passing through. National Anthems relating to each ship were played as they passed by the restaurant where we were having lunch.
We now look forward to welcoming a group from Otterndorf next year to celebrate 30 years of twinning.
