Heide, Administrative center in Dithmarschen, Germany.

The town features the largest unoccupied market square in Germany, measuring 4.7 hectares and providing 500 parking spaces in the center.

Four villages merged around a church built on a heath in the 15th century, forming the settlement that became the main village of Dithmarschen by 1447.

The Brahmshaus museum preserves the former residence of Johannes Brahms's ancestors, maintaining connections to the renowned German classical music composer.

The tourist information center in the old parsonage assists visitors with accommodation bookings and regional information from Monday through Saturday.

The town implemented car-free Sundays on the market square in 2016, transforming the expansive space into a community gathering area.
