Flensburg is one of the few towns not destroyed during World War II, resulting in a large number of historic buildings from various periods still standing. During the 18th century, Flensburg was nicknamed “City of Rum”, for it’s trade with the Caribbean islands. Evidence of that can still be found in the lively harbor area.


Today, every German knows the city’s name for a different reason: it is where the German Motor Vehicle Authority is headquartered. The city is witness to 700 years of history and that can be seen in the old town. For two hours, enjoy some of the most important historical highlights, admire the elegant and sophisticated architecture and listen to fascinating stories about this charming place.
