A church has been discovered by archaeologists in a sunken medieval city in Germany, which has allowed for the mapping of the lost city of Rungholt for the first time. Legends suggest that Rungholt was a city destroyed by divine intervention in 1362 as a result of its population’s moral depravity. The drowned city, also known as the “Atlantis of the North,” has been confirmed scientifically since 1938, and the latest discovery of a two-kilometer long chain of medieval terps near Sudfall has enabled researchers to find the remains of a church with a size of 40 meters by 15 meters, along with two smaller sites of churches and a sea dike with a tidal gate harbor. Rungholt was renowned for its wealth, and treasure hunters have often searched for lost riches there, however, the cultural remains on the tidal flats are in “extreme endangerment” from erosion. Similar sunken cities across the world include Dwaraka in India, Atlit Yam in Israel, and Thonis-Heracleion in Egypt.
