Bishorst, Archaeological site in Pinneberg, Germany
The remnants of Bishorst include a warft and the Eschenallee, with some portions of the village becoming visible during strong Elbe River currents.
The site dates back to the 9th century when it contained a church, later becoming a parish and spiritual center in the Haseldorfer Marsh.
In 1125, missionary Vicelin received Bishorst as a gift, establishing it as a protected mission village during the period of Wendish attacks.
The archaeological site provides researchers with evidence of historical settlement patterns and the effects of severe flooding on coastal communities.
The entire village disappeared beneath the waters during the 18th century following multiple devastating storm surges from the Elbe River.
