Overview

  • He is scheduled to travel from Hamburg on Tuesday on the Halunder Jet catamaran and stay until Wednesday, according to the municipality and ferry operator.
  • The program includes a town-hall reception, an island tour, a Börteboot trip to the Düne, and a festive cultural evening.
  • The trip stems from an invitation by Mayor Thorsten Pollmann and tourism director Katharina Schlicht, who describe the visit as a gesture of friendship.
  • Schleswig-Holstein’s state chancellery was not officially informed, BILD reported, while Daniel Günther said Söder was coming on his own accord and wished him calm seas.
  • Local organizers present the visit as tourism-focused publicity for Germany’s only high-sea island, as the Söder–Günther rivalry provides political backdrop.
