Fehmarn: Burgtiefe: Fehmarn - Aussichtsturm am Yachthafen
Among the places of Schleswig-Holstein, Fehmarn stands out for its Baltic coast, lagoons and low, open island terrain. Lying off Germany’s northeastern shore, it is bounded by the Fehmarn Belt to the north and separated from the mainland by Fehmarn Sound. The Burger Binnensee is a sheltered inlet near Burg, the island’s principal town, with marinas and facilities for watersports. Fehmarn combines farmland with maritime tourism, giving its shores a pattern of fields, coastal roads and small harbours. The Fehmarn Sound Bridge, opened in 1963, established a fixed road and rail link to the mainland and remains a defining landmark of the island’s modern history.

The Baltic Sea defines the setting of Fehmarn — this low-lying German island is shaped by open coasts, farmland, beaches and small harbours, with wind and sea routes part of daily life. The Fehmarn Sound separates it from the mainland, crossed by the Fehmarn Sound Bridge, an arch bridge opened in 1963 and a familiar transport landmark of Schleswig-Holstein. Burg, the island’s principal town, supplies its urban centre, while the coast attracts sailors, cyclists and birdwatchers; Fehmarn also lies on an important bird migration route.

Schleswig-Holstein blends maritime openness with rural calm in a way that reflects its position between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. Germany’s northernmost state borders Denmark and stretches across low farmland, marshes, sandy shores and islands. The Kiel Canal crosses the region, linking the North Sea at Brunsbüttel with the Baltic near Kiel. On the west coast, the tidal flats of the Wadden Sea form part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. Lübeck’s historic centre, shaped by the Hanseatic League and Brick Gothic architecture, adds an important urban counterpoint.

Germany stretches from the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts to the Alps on its southern border, encompassing northern plains, river valleys and forested uplands. The Rhine, Danube and Elbe have long connected its regions, while the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps give the south a more dramatic relief. Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate and Museum Island reflect the capital’s role in German history and culture. Cologne Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rises above the Rhine, and the Bauhaus movement, founded in Weimar in 1919, transformed modern design far beyond Germany. Regional cooking, Christmas markets and brewing traditions bring further character to daily life. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Germany.
