Paul von Hindenburg made Hitler the Chancellor of the Reich. Nevertheless, the name is very present in Germany. Sylt wants to change that now.
In the future, North German municipalities, tourism associations and Deutsche Bahn want to renounce the name Hindenburgdamm for the famous railway connection between the island of Sylt and the mainland.
The "Hindenburgdamm" is on everyone's lips, but that's all. Officially, the land connection for the train to Sylt never bore this name, but it's usually called that. Germany's northernmost island is now taking a completely new path.

Shortly before the celebration of the 100th anniversary, Sylt says goodbye to a traditional name. The railway connection from the mainland to the island is to be called "Syltdamm" in the future.
