Spiekeroog, Car-free coastal municipality in Lower Saxony, Germany

Spiekeroog extends over 18 square kilometers on the North Sea coast, between the islands of Langeoog and Wangerooge within the Wittmund district.

The island's first documented mention dates to 1398 as Spiekeroch, when 13 families lived there focusing on farming, fishing, and limestone production.

The Old Island Church from 1696 stands as the earliest religious building across all East Frisian Islands, featuring traditional architecture.

A daily ferry service connects the mainland port of Neuharlingersiel to the island, where electric mini cars provide transportation for visitors.

The municipality maintains 3,500 accommodation beds and receives 64,000 annual visitors who generate over 554,000 overnight stays.
