On the west side of the Flensburg Fjord is the historic harbour where, especially in summer, people come to amble along the boardwalk, taking in the sailboats in the water and quaint houses on the shore. The streets in this quarter have evocative maritime names like Schiffbrücke (ship pier), Segelmacherstraße (sail-makers’ street), and there’s an o...
If you’ve always wanted to learn to sail, Flensburg is one of the best places for it in the Baltic Sea to take that leap. The fjord’s waters are easy-going as they’re so sheltered, but the consistent breezes keep things fun. There are tourist marinas at short intervals along the fjord and the fierce competition for business keeps prices down. In su...
On Südermarkt, the Nikolaikirche is the largest church in the city at more than 50 metres in length. The Nikolaikirche is a classic Gothic hall church begun in 1390, with aisles around the same width as the central nave and divided by six pairs of mighty round brick pillars. The altar from 1749 is unusual, being at the transition from Baroque to Ro...

The resplendent gabled Heinrich-Sauermann-Haus is for the art and culture of the Schleswig region. In 25 rooms there are whole home interiors from...

In these workshops you’ll discover many different skills that went into building ships in the 18th and 19th-centuries, and find out about the life of a wor...
This memorial has been on quite a journey in the 155 years since it was first erected in the Alter Friedhof cemetery. The Flensburger Löwe was raised in 1862 by the Danes to commemorate their victory over the state of Schleswig-Holstein in the Battle of Isted in 1850. The fairytale writer Hans Christian Andersen was among the crowd when it was unve...
Standing by the Nordermarkt, the Marienkirche is a brick-built Gothic church dating from the 1200s. The basic structure of the nave and choir hasn’t changed since they were extended at the start of the 15th century, while the western tower went up at the beginning of the 1730s. The reason the Marienkirche needs to be on your radar is for its wonder...
The customs house by the harbour was built in 1843 and stored duty-sealed goods like rum up to 1972. The lower floors are supported by cast iron columns from the earliest years of Flesburg’s iron industry. A maritime museum opened here in 1984, and this was recently brought up to date again in 2012. The museum is a treasure chest of seafaring memor...
This pedestrian street heading south from Südermarkt was a place of business for merchants, craftsmen and inn-keepers in Medieval times and the Early Modern Age. Their centuries-old buildings along the way have been well looked after, and the tower of Nikolaikirche to the north gives Rote Straße a charming backdrop. Many of the facades give way to ...
