Schleswig-Holstein combines historic structures with varied natural landscapes between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. The region encompasses castles such as Glücksburg and Plön, medieval monasteries including Cismar and Nütschau, and museums spanning from Viking times to maritime history. Visitors find the Hedeby Viking Museum, Gottorf Castle in Schleswig, and the historic Ratzeburg Cathedral. The natural areas extend from beaches at Pelzerhaken and Rosenfelder Strand to the Lauenburg Lakes Nature Park and moorland at Kaltenhofer Moor. The Geltinger Birk Nature Reserve and wildlife parks at Eekholt and Arche Warder display native flora and fauna. The Kiel Canal, lighthouses at Westerhever and Amrum, and the Multimar Wattforum in Tönning document the importance of the coastal region.
