Sightseeing in Flensburg - what to see. Complete travel guide

This is a cozy place filled with charm and romantic atmosphere. The town was founded seven centuries ago. Several countries have influenced on the culture and lifestyle of this place. These are Denmark, Germany and neighboring Scandinavian countries. Flensburg was joined to the territory of Germany in the beginning of the 18th century. This is one of few cities which have survived during World War II, so its historical and cultural heritage is rather diverse. Many buildings of different epochs have survived here. What’s more interesting - historic sites do not stand abandoned as they have been transformed into modern buildings.
Nowadays you can see a huge number of restaurants, hotels and coffee shops that work in the 19th century buildings. Port district of this town will be surely of particular interest to tourists. Here you will find several entertainment centers and children's amusement parks. This part of the city is simply soaked in fun and joy - you can see funny clowns and musicians who sell drinks and cotton candy. Here you can also participate in a boat trip. Long ago this port area has been a location of a large market, where sailors from distant lands have sold here exotic products and goods. Today, in memory of those times, port is the location of several souvenir shops. There are also several food pavilions there, the majority of which sell seafood.
A remarkable fact about this town – the majority of the town’s streets and pedestrians and cyclists only. You can also rent a boat in the port district and head out to explore the coastal attractions. Lovers of nightlife will also find here much interesting as in the town there are so many pubs, discos and nightclubs that fit all tastes.

Museum Hill is a symbolic place for the city. Several popular museums are found here. The Museum of Fine Arts is one of them. It introduces visitors to the outstanding works of local painters. The second one is the Museum of Local History. A bright gathering of household items, handicrafts, and historical artifacts is collected within its walls. The Natural Science Museum will appeal to those who are not indifferent to nature, and lovers of marine stories will like the Museum of Shipping. A whole day won't be enough to see all the sights and cultural centers represented in the area.
Flensburg lives a rich cultural life. Interesting festivals take place in the city throughout the year. At the end of July, the Flensburg Yard Culture Festival starts. During the festival, you can witness excellent musical, dance and theatrical performances. Many of the activities take place right on city streets, in the open air. One can visit them absolutely for free.
An annual FolkBaltic festival devoted to the traditional music of the Baltic region is held in the city in April. During the festival, famous musicians from different countries visit the city.

Tourists who visit Flensburg in the warm season, should definitely take a stroll through the city’s parks and squares. The largest and most beautiful is the City Park, founded over a hundred years ago. It is notable for the variety of incredible landscape decorations. You can also enjoy several symbolic monuments. In the center of the park is a monument to General Karl von Wrangel, installed here in 1903.
A walk through the Christiansen Park can turn into an exciting excursion. The main decoration of the park is a cascade of artificially created ponds. It looks so harmonious that it is really difficult to believe in its man-made structure. There is an artificial grotto in the park, which stores a real Egyptian mummy. The mummy was brought to the city by one of the local archaeologists.
Spring is the best time to walk in the Luther Park, which is famous for its rich collection of crocuses. The park turns into an incredibly beautiful flower oasis when they bloom. Furthermore, you can admire a mass of glorious ornamental plants and flowers.
