Risum-Lindholm
Template:Infobox German location
Risum-Lindholm (Template:Langx) is a municipality in the district of Nordfriesland, in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.
Geography
Location
Risum-Lindholm lies about five kilometres southeast of Niebüll and six kilometres west of Leck on a boundary between a low, sandy area of geest and the marshes.
Villages
The municipality was formed in 1969 from the formerly independent municipalities of Risum and Lindholm. Because it extends over several kilometres, the villages of Maasbüll (North Frisian: Moosbel, Danish: Masbøl), Risum (NF: Risem), Lindholm (NF: Lunham), Klockries (NF: Klookriis, Dan: Klokris), Wegacker (NF: Wäieeker) and Kremperhaus (Dan. Krempehus) (beside Broweg (NF: Bruwäi), Läiged, Legerade (NF: Läigeroos) and Herrenkoog (NF: Hiirnekuch, Dan: Herrekog[1][2]), which do not lie on the long village street) are of great importance for describing a location. In local usage, the actual municipal name is rarely used, but rather the name of the respective village.
Notable people
