Arnis

Arnis stands on the Schlei fjord at an elevation of 2 meters, encompassing an area of 0.45 square kilometers in northern Germany.

The town was established in 1667 when shipping families from Kappeln settled here to escape serfdom under privileges granted by Duke Christian Albrecht.

The Skipper's Church, built in 1673, contains historical artwork and a decorative pulpit that reflect the maritime traditions of this community.

The marina provides services for recreational boats while the town offers accommodations and dining options along the waterfront promenade.

This municipality holds the distinction of being Germany's smallest city by both population, with 275 residents, and physical size.
