ON THE ROAD WITH CLAAS-ERIK JOHANNSEN ON SYLT
Sunday, March 16th – Friday, March 21st, 2025
Enjoy five days on Sylt, accompanied and commented on by Claas-Erik Johannsen – personal, informative, culinary.
He will take you on this very private exploration tour and
show you “his” Sylt.
Look forward to exciting and eventful days
that will take you across the island and also to the nearby mainland.
Claas-Erik Johannsen will once again guide the participating guests around his island of Sylt and to the adjacent mainland – personally, informatively, culinary.
We start on the evening of the day of arrival with a shared dinner and end the event with our famous late riser breakfast in the “particularly hearty” version. There is plenty of program on the days in between: We travel around the island in the vintage bus, then to Husum to see the crocuses bloom and the “Haus Theodor Storm” museum, to a very special concert in the St. Severin Church and on a tour of Keitum. On Thursday evening we will enjoy a 4-course meal together as a final dinner.
“I’m looking forward to a very special week with our island explorers, with interesting encounters, lots of conversations and new experiences that will be remembered for a long time.”
Your host
Claas-Erik Johannsen

Crocus blossom in the Husum castle park
“Every spring, over 4 million crocuses transform the Husum castle park into a purple-colored natural spectacle.
The reason is the “Crocus neapolitanus”, a wild plant from the southern regions of Europe that has been providing a unique floral splendor for several hundred years. The largest crocus population in northern Europe is reason enough for the people of Husum to give this miracle royal dignity. On the occasion of the annual crocus blossom around the castle in front of Husum, the new Husum crocus blossom majesty is crowned and the crocus blossom festival is celebrated.” Tourism and city marketing Husum

The particularly impressive exhibits include the Biedermeier sofa with an engraved deer hunt, the square piano (which Storm’s father had delivered to his son in Heiligenstadt in 1857) and the desk at which the poet completed his novella »The Rider on the White Horse« – with four owls carved by the young Emil Nolde (1867-1956).
