August 11, 2023,Ahoi Kiel - Am Hafen

After the long drive, the feet needed to be exercised. We were lucky with the sun ☀️. So we enjoyed a freshly tapped 🍺 at the Ostseekai, followed by a wonderful ice cream. Then it was on to the viewpoint... And back again. I only tracked the way back. This then led towards the old town. Here we had dinner …

July 15, 2022,Kleine Erledigung in Kiel gemacht 🤗 🥾

Today I had an appointment in Kiel 🗓 .
I quickly got the 9€ ticket and off we went in an overcrowded train 🚉 to Kiel.
From there I strolled along the keel line.
At the end there was a doner kebab 🥙, because it makes you more beautiful 🎶 🤗🎵

February 5, 2022,Peter und Katharina - keine Liebesgeschichte aus Kiel

Today's tour passed the Kiel Castle twice. The work of art "Tsar Peter III" by the Russian sculptor Alexander Taratynov caught my eye for the first time. (Pictures 16 to 20)
That's why I want to tell you today in a short outline the story of Peter, who saw the light of day here in 1728.

June 26, 2025,Donnerstags-Runde auf der Kieler Woche ab Hauptbahnhof

I went today, Thursday, in modest weather, so as not to get caught in the crowds. It worked out, and it only drizzled a little, so it was a successful trip to the state capital 😀

June 14, 2025,Kiel, die etwas andere Stadttour

Today, in keeping with the heat, I had a great time navigating Kiel. By bus to the main train station and then along the promenade almost to the naval base. From one shade to the next. On the way back, I went through the forest. It was so beautiful, with lots of benches and even tables. Almost nobody was there. …

June 7, 2025,„Kiel“ ein kurzer Einblick

Whitsun in Kiel, the state capital of Schleswig-Holstein. The first surprise was a bronze sculpture by Barlach, whose birthplace we visited just last week...😁. We passed the no longer existing castle and descended to the Kiellinie. These enormous cruise ships are truly impressive (despite their dubious right to exist). We continued to the seal pool... A water sports regatta was …

June 17, 2023,Die Kieler Woche ⚓🛥️🍻

Spontaneously we went to Kiel for the Kiel Week today, in a completely overcrowded train.
Was curious what to expect and was surprised. I didn't expect the event to be so big. The 10 kilometers we walked were not even enough to see the entire festival mile.
The only downside was that it was getting more and more crowded and …
