General presentation
Schleswig, Flensburg et fjord
North German-Danish, between fjords, ports, Viking museums, bricks, beaches and Danish border.
The discovery of Schleswig, Flensburg and Fjord revolves around Flensburg, Schleswig and Hedeby. The stay thus alternates between the coast, urban life and heritage, giving a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: marine weather and dispersed destination. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
World Heritage
Danevirke
The Danevirke forms a long line of ramparts, ditches and upslopes in the Schleswig-Holstein, inherited from the medieval Danish defences. Its strength appears in the very ground: it locked passages between marshes, rivers and roads, well before modern borders.
Town or village
Flensburg
Flensburg is apprehensive by the density of its streets, the character of the port front and the energy of the center. A walk-in approach allows you to feel the layers of the place, from daily activity to the most discreet architectural details.
Place
Schleswig
Schleswig It is read as a coherent set of historical venals and punctual views of the northern landscape. The traveller gains from alternating central passages and quieter areas, especially at the beginning of the afternoon when the contrasts of light clarify the forms.
Place
Hedeby
Hedeby offers an open-air archaeology discovery where the past blends with the current fabric. As we move slowly, we can see the lines of old alignments better, which gives a more lasting understanding than the routes too guided.
