Norden

Western Europe

Norden is a town in the district of Aurich, in Lower Saxony, Germany, situated near the North Sea shore in East Frisia. It consists of the old town centre and ten official subdistricts, among them Bargebur, Norddeich, Ekel, Lintel and Westgaste. About 92.5 percent of its people live in the main town and the villages that have grown together with it, while the remaining subdistricts are rural and sparsely populated but cover most of the borough. Norden railway station is served by InterCity and Regional-Express trains of Deutsche Bahn. The town hosts the launch point of SEA-ME-WE 3, the world's longest submarine cable, and the church of St. Ludgeri holds the organ of 1686 to 1692 by Arp Schnitger. The Doornkaat distillery, founded in 1806, was based here, and the scholar Hermann Conring was born in Norden in 1606.
