Bronze Sculpture "Schleswigerin" by Carl Constantin Weber

Highlight • Monument

No, they don't all look that way, the people of Schleswig. But this one has a pretty strict look that the wind is lifting her skirt. Marylin goes different ...

The location of the Schleswig city harbor is excellent. The old town with the cathedral and the old fishing settlement "Holm" border directly on the harbor. The shopping street with numerous shops is only a few minutes' walk away. Varied gastronomy can be found directly at the harbor, bike rental and excursions on the Schlei complete the offer.

St. Peter's Cathedral (Schleswig Cathedral)

Highlight • Religious Site

The most important medieval architectural monument in the city of Schleswig is the almost 900 year old St. Petri Cathedral. As soon as you enter the imposing interior of the church, the history of the church flows through you.
From the corner of your eye you can see a lot of sights from the Romanesque and Gothic construction period. A few influences from the Renaissance and the Baroque can also be seen.
One of the oldest sacred furnishings and earliest examples of its kind north of the Alps is the Three Kings altar with its life-size, fully plastic figures from the year 1300.
Historians assume that the Sankt Petri Dom was built around 1105, possibly on the foundations of a previous building.
In the year 1300, a 100 year long, extensive further development of the Sankt Petri Dom began. During this construction phase, the church attendance, the so-called "Schwahl", arose in which the Schwahlmarkt, a Christmas market, known far beyond Schleswig's city limits, takes place today.

Old Town of Schleswig

Highlight • Settlement

Schleswig is the oldest city in northern Germany and was first mentioned in 804. At this time, Schleswig was a secondary settlement of the Viking metropolis Haithabu. When this was destroyed by the Slavs in 1066, Schleswig's rise began. Christianity spread, the power of the Vikings dwindled and Schleswig became an important episcopal see in the Middle Ages.
