Sielhof, Noble estate in Neuharlingersiel, Germany
Sielhof is a noble estate in Neuharlingersiel featuring a distinctive tower topped with a double-curved dome covered in turquoise tiles. The building is constructed with dark red clinker brick and white-painted window frames.
The building was constructed in 1755 by Siebelt Frerichs Eymen as a two-story stone structure. Between 1899 and 1906 it underwent extensive renovation to be transformed into a noble residence.
The Rococo Room displays ceiling paintings and original doors, while its walls are decorated with Bible tiles portraying scenes from both testaments. This collection tells religious stories through handcrafted ceramics arranged throughout the space.
The ground floor contains a restaurant open Tuesday through Sunday for dining. The upper floor can be visited when no wedding ceremonies are scheduled, as it serves as the registry office space.
The building survived the severe Blasius storm tide of 1825, after which Udo Hillrich Eucken purchased and preserved the property. His efforts to protect it transformed this place into a rare survivor from that era.
