Historic Sites in Schleswig-Holstein

Schleswig-Holstein’s historical landscape is defined by its strategic position between the North and Baltic Seas. This collection spans from the Neolithic Harhoog dolmen to the UNESCO-listed Viking settlement of Hedeby and the defensive Danevirke fortifications. Lübeck’s skyline is represented by monumental Brick Gothic landmarks like St. Mary's Church, while the region’s maritime heritage is highlighted by the 16th-century Travemünde lighthouse. Renaissance castles in Glücksburg and Plön further reflect the complex ducal history of Germany's northernmost state.
