Just 30 minutes inland of Kiel, Rendsburg sits at the confluence of the River Eider and the Kiel Canal. In central Schleswig-Holstein, the town has a long history of passing from Danish to German and back again, finally becoming part of Germany in 1866. A seaport and dockyard since the creation of the Kiel Canal, the town has a largely industrial past, but now attracts both history enthusiasts and outdoorsy types. Our Gurus’ pick of the best places to stay in Rendsburg is a lovely B&B in the heart of town, ideal for families as well as couples or individuals.
Discover Rendsburg on foot or two wheels, admiring elegant brick edifices, pausing in sunlit squares, or joining the town’s residents in bustling beer gardens. St Mary’s Church is lovely, as is the popular theatre and the town’s wealth of speciality museums. The enormous railway bridge which crossed the Kiel Canal is Rendsburg’s largest landmark, and can’t be missed. Around it, however, are striking cycling trails and walking paths, as well as quiet spots for coffee, bird watching or soaking up the sunshine with a good book.
This part of Schleswig-Holstein is fantastic for keen kayakers and sailors, or those eager to take to the waters in a canal boat. There are fishing opportunities, too. Day trips to coastal Kiel, on the Baltic Sea, come highly recommended. Savour hearty breakfasts at the best place to stay in Kiel each morning, before setting out to make the most of the day!
