Pellworm is a municipality in the district of Nordfriesland, in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. The municipality is located on the island of Pellworm – one of the North Frisian Islands on the North Sea coast of Germany. Its area is 37 km², and its population is roughly 1,200. A landmark is the Old Church with its Arp Schnitger organ from about 1710. Next to this church is the ruin of its 13th-century steeple. The 58 m tall tower collapsed partially in 1611. The 30 m tall ruin has been conserved, so that it is safe for further decay. Locals often call the tower Finger Gottes, God's Finger. The tower is depicted in the coat of arms of Pellworm.
