Niehuussee

Highlight • Lake

The Niehuussee is a wonderful oasis. It is located in the middle of a nature reserve and you can find out more about the flora and fauna here. A small hiking trail leads around the lake. The west bank of the lake is already the border with Denmark. There is no official swimming area here.

Wassersleben Beach

Highlight • 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.

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.

Steamboat Alexandra, Flensburg Harbor

Highlight • Monument

Salty fjord air, the lapping of the waves on the bow, a cup of coffee in the beautifully restored Art Nouveau salon – a trip on the "Alex," whose characteristic "tooooo!"
call is familiar to every child in Flensburg, is a truly special experience.

Flensburg Harbor Point

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Flensburger Hafen (Flensburg Harbour) is located at the end of the Flensburger Förde within the city of Flensburg. A distinction is made between the west side, the east side, and the tip of the harbour.

The harbour extends in the west from the tip of the harbour to the Baltic Sea resort. On the east bank, its dimensions were formerly counted up to Kielseng. Since the withdrawal of the Bundeswehr, Sonwik and the adjacent boat harbour of the Mürwik Naval School are sometimes also mentioned in this context. In addition, the buildings of the Flensburg city centre, the buildings of Jürgensby, and the Volkspark are located around the harbour, forming Flensburg's distinctive skyline. Next to the Flensburger Hafen, there is a sailing harbour at Fahrensodde on the east bank, which does not belong to the aforementioned harbour.

At the tip of the harbour, Flensburg's Mühlenstrom flows into the Förde. On Angelburger Straße, where the tip of the harbour was located in the Middle Ages before the Förde silted up, became muddy and was filled in, the Royal Water Mill stood until the beginning of the 20th century.
The current tip of the harbour is protected from surrounding traffic noise by the embankments of the harbour railway. Until the 1980s, the so-called Kanalschuppen (canal shed) stood there. Today, the tip of the harbour is undeveloped and consists of a large open space that serves as a venue for various events. In summer, when the area is unoccupied, young people often play frisbee or Viking chess there.

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.

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.
