What was Rungholt?
Rungholt was a trading town in North Frisia, the historic region of north Germany.
The wealthy settlement sank due to a storm surge in January 1362, thought to have killed up to 25,000 people.
As legend goes, the town was hit by the storm as a punishment from God due to the sins of its inhabitants.
Researchers have now announced that the church of the sunken medieval trading place has been found, 660 years after it sank.
