In this 900-soul- community in the eastern part of the
peninsula Eiderstedt one forgets the large city hectic and breathes the salt and iodine rich air, of the typical stimulating climate.
The typical farmhouse form on the peninsula Eiderstedt is the
Haubarge. The most popular and best restored is the Red Haubarg in the Witzworter Adolfskoog with a height of 23m and a floor space of 720qm.
Today there is an agricultural museum as well as a restaurant inside.
The bathing beaches of Simonsberg and Uelvesbüll are not far from the village.
Reimersbude in the south of the community is the oldest part of the village; it had already 600 years ago a port with ferry traffic at the Eider sinuosity.
From Witzwort it is only a stone's throw to the sandy beaches of
Sankt Peter-Ording and
Westerhever.
Green beaches can be found at Uelvesbüll, Simonsberg and at the Eider.
Well worth seeing in Witzwort is the church, brick building with gothic nave (most probably from 1420) and the Red
Haubarg.
