About "Wangerooge à la carte | History: the Eastern beacon"

by Dirk H. Wendt

About the artwork

The East Beacon on Wangerooge (also: beach beacon, hourglass beacon or egg timer) was a cardinal sea marker built in its original form in 1909. Together with the west beacon, the lighthouse and the north beacon, the beacon was considered the landmark of Wangerooge Island. In 2013 the historic, dilapidated beacon was demolished.
Wangerooge (formerly and in Lower German Wangeroog) is an island in the Lower Saxon Wadden Sea within the national park of the same name. It is the easternmost of the seven inhabited East Frisian islands and with an area of 7.94 square kilometres the second smallest inhabited island in this group. Wangerooge is the only one of the inhabited East Frisian islands that does not belong to the historical territory of East Frisia, but is historically part of the Frisian Jeverland and the Oldenburger Land.
