Gain insights into the production of the North Sea landmarks
This offer applies exclusively to group and business trips:
As early as 1948, trained basket maker Paul Schardt began building beach chairs on the island of Sylt. For over 40 years, his stepson Willy Trautmann's factory has been located at the harbor in Rantum. Today, these high-quality baskets can be found not only on Sylt's beaches, but also on patios around the world.
But how is a beach chair actually made, and how long does it take? How much braiding is needed in production? And why are there North and Baltic Sea beach chairs?

On a guided tour of the family business, you will receive answers to these questions and can watch the basket weavers and carpenters at work.
