Pellworm

Nordfriesland, in Schleswig-Holstein
, Germany.

The municipality is located on the island of Pellworm – one of the North Frisian Islands on the North Sea coast of Germany. Its area is 37 km2, and its population is roughly 1,200. A landmark is the Old Church (German: Alte Kirche) with its Arp Schnitger organ from about 1710.

In medieval times Pellworm was a part of the larger island of

Halligen. All these belonged to the historical region of Uthlande
.

Pellworm is accessible by a ferry departing from the neighbouring peninsula of Nordstrand (which is in turn connected with the mainland by a road causeway).

The island hosts one of the largest

vanadium flow battery, and a thermal storage unit. Gildemeister, now Cellcube part of Enerox, supplied the vanadium battery.[3]

Together with several smaller islands, Pellworm forms the Amt of Pellworm.
