Welcome to Germany's True North

Welcome!

This is the official tourism-website of Germany’s True North.

High up in the north of Germany, on the border with Denmark, lies the self-proclaimed “most beautiful federal state in the world”: Schleswig-Holstein, hemmed in by the rough North Sea on one side and the gentler Baltic Sea on the other. The green land between the coasts is flat and fertile. The wind here is simply everywhere, sometimes just a little bit, a gentle breeze, sometimes a fresh gust and often a full-on storm.
