On Site
Norddorf is the northernmost village on the island, featuring the traditional Haus Löwenherz, an AOK clinic located directly at the transition to the dune landscape. Restaurants and cafés are in close proximity to the concert venues.
A North German Pentecost Tradition
For years, the Mädchen-Musikzug Neumünster has traveled to the North Frisian island of Amrum for Pentecost, filling the weekend with brass music. The ensemble is a special feature: Germany's only all-girl brass band, comprising around 30 female musicians who perform march and concert music at the highest level — an unusual sight in a brass band scene that remains predominantly male.
Pentecost Program on the Island
The weekend is spread across several venues: Norddorf, Nebel, and Wittdün. Highlights include the public concert in front of Haus Löwenherz at the AOK clinic on Pentecost Sunday (12:20 PM), the subsequent concert at the cinema (1:00 PM), and the evening concert «Queens of Music» in the Norddorf Community Hall (7:30 PM) with free admission.
