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.

Hiking

Not only the small fishing village Holm can delight. The old town of Schleswig also has its charm with the cathedral and the facades of houses.

The cathedral is unfortunately currently packed (12/2018), the city center with its many small shops, the Kornmarkt ... especially the Mühlenbach has done to us. 😉
