Brunsbüttel (German pronunciation (help·info)) is a town in the district of Dithmarschen, in Schleswig-Holstein, northern Germany that lies at the mouth of the Elbe river, near the North Sea. It is the location of the western entrance to the Kiel Canal. The earliest reference to the town is in a document dated 14 July 1286. With the construction of the Kiel Canal (German: Nord-Ostsee-Kanal) in 1911, the town was divided in two. During the opening days of World War II, on 4 September 1939, the No. 149 Squadron RAF carried out the second bombing of that war, targeting warships near the town. More information...
