Dornum, Municipality by the North Sea in Lower Saxony, Germany.
The municipality of Dornum encompasses ten districts, including Dornumergrode, Dornumersiel, Nesse, and Neßmersiel, stretching across 69 square kilometers of flat coastal terrain.
The Jewish community of Dornum maintained a synagogue until 1938, when local authorities confiscated the building and deported residents to concentration camps during Kristallnacht.
The Lutheran St Bartholomaeus Church contains a national treasure: an organ constructed by Gerhard von Holy, representing regional craftsmanship and musical heritage.
The municipality functions as a receiving terminal for Europipe I and II, channeling natural gas through a 48-kilometer pipeline system to Emden for distribution.
Minnie Marx, mother of the renowned Marx Brothers comedy group, and her brother Al Shean were born in Dornum during the 1860s.
