Flensburg Museum Harbor

Highlight • Historical Site

In Flensburg's historic harbor, visitors can still experience the city's maritime heritage and way of life firsthand. Alongside the museum shipyard and the maritime museum, the harbor boasts a diverse collection of historic motor, sailing, and steamships. Highlights include the famous saloon steamer Alexandra, the Captain's Walk, where visitors can relive a day in the life of a captain, and the beautiful old town setting, which, in conjunction with numerous maritime events, truly offers a journey back in time.

Wassersleben Beach

It's definitely worth stopping here and enjoying the beautiful sandy beach. In summer it's great to lie on the beach and swim in the cool water.

Cycle route along the Flensburg Fjord

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Flensburg Fjord (Danish: Flensborg Fjord) is an approximately 40 to 50-kilometer-long inlet of the western Baltic Sea and forms the border between Germany (Schleswig-Holstein) and Denmark along its northern and southern sides. Geologically, it was formed by the indentation of a glacial tongue in the inland ice during the Weichselian glaciation. It is classified as a fjord rather than a fjord because its flanks are relatively low.

The fjord is divided into two sections: the inner fjord toward Flensburg and the outer fjord, separated by the Holnis peninsula. At its western end, in Flensburg, it flows inland—the westernmost point of the Baltic Sea also lies along this line.

Today, the region is an important sporting area, especially for sailors, and hosts major regattas such as the Flensburg Fjord Regatta and the Rum Regatta. Fjord Week, with events for classic yachts, is also part of the regular schedule.

The Flensburg Fjord is also attractive for its landscape and tourism. It offers charming shorelines with beaches, steep coastlines, and moraine cliffs, nestled among gentle sandy areas. Nature and culture lovers will find a wealth of destinations along both shores: Flensburg with its historic old town and museum harbor, Glücksburg Castle, the Holnis peninsula with its protected salt marshes and lighthouses, as well as the Geltinger Birk nature reserve and the towns along the northern shore with the Gendarmenpfad (Gendarmen Trail) – a former border path along the Danish border.

For centuries, the fjord has been shaped by passenger and freight traffic – historic steamers connected Flensburg with towns on both sides. Today, leisure boating, excursion boats, traditional yachts and marine activities dominate in Mürwik.

Flensburg Fjord Promenade

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The 570-meter-long connection between Schiffbrücke and Brauereiweg was officially opened on Saturday, 06/07/25. At its end is an autonomous harbor ferry, which is not yet in operation (as of June 2025). The promenade is nicely designed, with plenty of seating.

Westside Harbor District Flensburg

Highlight • Settlement

The west-side harbor district is one of Flensburg's oldest districts and stretches along the ship bridge from the Maritime Museum to Hansen's brewery. This is where the Oluf Samson Gang or the Sailmaker's Street lead into the harbor area. A particularly interesting building in this environment is the recently renovated Hafen Hotel. The symbiosis of historical and modern parts of the building is highly successful here and significantly enhances the entire area.

June 14, 2022,Prolog: Von Flensburg nach Krusau in Dänemark und Stadtrundfahrt in Flensburg
Today at 5:11 a.m. from Rottweil via Stuttgart and Hamburg I started the train journey to Flensburg, where upon arrival I moved into my pre-booked - modest - room in the "FLENSBED" (a kind of hostel, but with a single room). Despite its length, the train journey on the ICE was very relaxed and entertaining. I traveled with several Baltic …
