Popular around Haddebyer Noor
Noore – from the Danish word “Nor” – are bodies of water that are almost completely separated from the sea, except for a small access point. Accordingly, the coastal lakes feature a special mix of fresh and saltwater – a unique habitat for waterfowl. The most beautiful Noore around the Schlei are the Haddebyer Noor and the Selker Noor.

The animals living here are not only intended to show what the typical farm animals of Haithabu were, but they also serve for natural landscape maintenance. Incidentally, in front of the entrance to the outdoor area, there are many information boards about all the domestic and farm animals of the High Middle Ages.

From the ramparts you can see the Viking village and in the distance you can just make out the bridge over the Noor.

The hiking trail crosses the sheep pastures several times... if you're lucky, the sheep will be grazing in one of these pastures...
