Butjadingen is a peninsula and municipality in the Wesermarsch districts, in Lower Saxony, Germany. ==Geography== Butjadingen is situated on the German North Sea coast. It is bordered on the west and southwest by the Jade River and on the east by the Weser River. It forms the northern part of the Wesermarsch district and has a rather low population. The political borough of Butjadingen adjoins to Nordenham which geographically is also part of the peninsula Butjadingen. The peninsula was formed during the Middle Ages when huge floods created today's North Sea coast lines. After the disastrous Second Marcellus Flood on January 13, 1362 (which occurred around the day of Marcelli Pontificis) Butjadingen temporarily became an island. Its name is derived from Frisian "buten" (=outside) and "Jade" and thus means ''the lands on the other side of the Jade river''. In front of the peninsula is the Wadden Sea which stretches between the Jade's and the Weser's mouths about 23 kilometres to the northwest beyond the Mellum island. It is part of the ''Nationalpark Niedersächsisches Wattenmeer'' (Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park), one of three German Wadden Sea National Parks. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Butjadingen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
