Rendsburg-Eckernförde, Rural district in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany
The district spans 2,185 square kilometers along the Baltic Sea coast and includes sections of the Kiel Canal in northern Germany.
The current administrative structure emerged in 1970 through the consolidation of two separate districts, Rendsburg and Eckernförde, established during Prussian rule.
The district maintains several museums, including the Molfsee Open Air Museum, which displays regional architecture and agricultural practices from past centuries.
The district office in Rendsburg manages administrative services for 278,979 residents, including vehicle registration, social welfare, and educational programs.
The annual SH Netz Cup rowing competition takes place between Breiholz Ferry and the Rendsburg Railway Bridge on the Kiel Canal.
